Planet-Safe Microplates, PLA-Based, 96-well, Round Bottom (U-Bottom), Clear, NON-STERILE, 100/case. 100% Plant-Based Planet-Safe Sustainable Labware is made from polylactic acid (PLA), a plant-based resin derived from sustainably cultivated sugarcane. USDA BioPreferred label. CELL GROWTH: Increased hydrophilic properties of Planet-Safe PLA surfaces allow a variety of anchorage-dependent cell species to grow on the dish surface without added coatings or treatments. IMPROVED CELL ADHESION: Planet-Safe surfaces exhibit improved cellular adhesion when compared to a leading brand. RELIABLE CELL GROWTH: identical growth rates were observed between Planet-Safe and Corning surfaces. Observed growth rate and confluence results were comparable to leading TC-treated polystyrene dishes. INCREASED STABILITY AND REPRODUCIBILITY: exhibits a much lower percentage of fluid shear compared to other available popular brands. COMPOSTABLE: commercially compostable per ASTM D6400 standards.
