Standard Tissue Culture Surfaces
Standard Tissue Culture (TC) Treatement :
•
To be used with adherent cells, the Polystyrene needs to be treated to
add charges and to get it hydrophylic.
•
Polystyrene is fully hydrophobic and no natural.
•
TC-surface treatment is achieved by (similar proceedure) :
− By gas plasma : placing polystyrene vessels into a vacuum chamber that
− By gas plasma : placing polystyrene vessels into a vacuum chamber that
receives a mixture of gases with electric power.
− By corona discharge.
•
The treatment will create a modification of the polystyrene altering it‘s
surface chemistry

Synthetic Non Specific – CellBIND & Primaria
Syntethic Non specific (Improved attachment) – CellBIND or Primaria :
• To be used with adherent cells, the Polystyrene needs to be treated to
add charges and to get it hydrophylic.
• Polystyrene is fully hydrophobic and no natural.
• TC-surface treatment is achieved by :
− a specific gaz mixture.
− a specific gaz mixture.
− A difference source of energy (microwaves).
• The treatment will create a modification of the polystyrene altering it‘s

ECM – Biological Coating
Biological coating with ECM molecules :
•
Cells are not living in 2D into a plastic box !
•
They are normally „living“ in the context of other cells, surrounded and in
contact with an extracellular matrix (ECM)
•
The TC-treated surfaces can be coated with ECM components :
− Biological molecules from the ECM :
• Can be bought pre-coated – ready-to-use products.
• Can be bought as a chemical – to plate into the lab.
− Reconstituted ECM = Corning® Matrigel® Matrix
