Thermo Fisher Scientific Introduces New Cost-Effective Cell Culture Products


Thermo Scientific BioLite Family Designed for Routine Cell Culture Research

MILFORD, Mass. - Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, today introduced Thermo Scientific BioLite products for general cell culture applications. These new products broaden the existing Thermo Scientific cell culture offering, which features many specialized formats and surfaces used for advanced cell culture research, including the premium Nunc portfolio. Manufactured from a US Pharmacopeia (USP) class VI polystyrene resin, BioLite products are sterile and non-pyrogenic, making the culture surfaces suitable for many standard cell lines.

This economical cell culture portfolio includes 35 - 150 mm diameter dishes, multidishes with 6, 12, 24, 48 or 96 wells, and flasks with surface areas of up to 175 cm². The BioLite products feature a cell culture surface for cell attachment and growth, providing a cost effective product to culture standard cell lines. As a result, researchers have access to the full range of Thermo Scientific cell culture products for both standard and critical applications.

Tests have proved the BioLite products comparable to other economically-priced brands of cell culture products, and able to double time and cell morphology for both HEK and VERO cells. The BioLite cell culture products offer researchers the flexibility to choose the culture format that best meets the requirements of their applications.
