Cell culture is a very important experimental technique and has become an indispensable research method in the fields of biopharmaceuticals, life sciences, and clinical transplantation. Cell culture must rely on cell consumables to achieve the conditions required for cell growth. Cell culture flasks and petri dishes are two common categories, so what is the difference between these two consumables?
The cell culture bottle is suitable for long-term culture, passage, and seed cells. The bottle mouth is small, and the cells are not easily contaminated. Cell culture dishes are suitable for use in various experiments and temporary culture. The difference between the two lies in the level of safety factor and the number of cultured cells. The experimental petri dish with cells as the carrier or object is better, because the amount used is relatively small, saving cells, and the petri dish is more convenient for control experiments, but the petri dish has a large opening and is relatively easy to contaminate, so it is more important to operate. Be careful.
The culture flask is used for the primary culture of tissue blocks or the culture of cells that are easily contaminated. The grown cells can be passaged according to personal preferences. The area of the cell culture flask is large, so it can be used when a large number of cells need to be expanded. bottle.
Both cell culture flasks and petri dishes are containers used for microbial or cell culture in the laboratory. The specific consumables used should be determined according to the specific needs of the experiment, as well as the culture method of cells, whether it is suspension culture or adherent culture. , the right consumables are the basis for the success of the experiment.
