Product Description

Overview of Akura™ 96 Spheroid Microplate

Automation compatible – Secure handling – Easy observation

Product Brochure (Click Here)

The Akura™ 96 Spheroid Microplate is designed for lossless spheroid/organoid formation and handling as well as reliable culturing and analysis.

• Unique SureXchange™ ledge engineered to prevent unintended spheroid/organoid aspiration
• Spheroid/organoid morphology and functionality are preserved in long-term culture by unique ULA coating
• Enhanced imaging speed and resolution through flat bottom well
• Improved spheroid/organoid formation with the Akura™ Tilting Stand by keeping the plate at 30 degrees during cell aggregation

Features of Akura™ 96 Spheroid Microplate

The package includes individually wrapped Akura™ 96 Spheroid Microplates, made of Cyclo olefin polymer, high-efficiency ULA coating, sterile, and includes a lid.

Architecture

• A Conical well design with SureXchange™ ledge protecting the spheroid/organoid from aspiration while leaving a minimal residual volume (5-7 µl).
• ANSI/SLAS standard format for full compatibility with automated liquid handling systems
• A leak-free and glue-free transparent polystyrene plate

Handling

• >90% medium removal without spheroid loss using manual and automated pipetting
• Ultra-low attachment surface with a stable cell-repellent coating
• Biologically inert, and non-degradable surface compatible with cell culture and in-plate post-culture processing steps such as cell lysis and fixation procedures

Imaging

• The flat bottom well minimizes optical aberration and ensures constant spheroid z-position
• Defined 1-mm quick-reference region of interest for increased imaging speed
