Wuxi Nest 5-Layer Cell Culture Flask, Plug Seal Cap, Straight Neck, TC, Sterile, 1/pk, 8/cs 731001

Material: High clarity medical grade polystyrene material Products Features: • Made of high clarity, 100% virgin polystyrene. • Sterilized by E-beam, SAL=10-6. • Non-Pyrogenic, DNase/Rnase free. • Growth area: 870 cm². • Individually Packaged in sterile bag. Guidelines for use: 1、Mix cell suspension with medium: Prepare cell suspension of required concentration in a container. Recommended volume is about 30- 50mL per layer. 2、Add the mixed liquid into the Multi-layer Flask slowly with serological pipettes. To avoid foam and bubbles, allow liquid stream to flow along the slope of the Multi-layer Flask. (Save a little liquid in pipette each time.) 3、Tips: A 10 mL pipette allows media to be dispensed at the bottom of the vessel. A 25 mL pipette allows media to be dispensed just past the NEST Logo. 4、Hold the Multi-layer Flask upright with the Logo facing you and tilt clockwise to a 45° angle on a flat work surface to partition the liquid into each layer. 5、While holding the Multi-layer Flask at a 45° angle, gently lay it flat onto the work surface with logo facing up. 6、After placing the Multi-layer Flask flat on a work surface, gently rock back and forth and side-to-side to distribute cells evenly onto culture surfaces. 7、Tips: Be careful to avoid foaming of medium, and not to spill liquid from each layer. 8、Repeat Step 3 to put the flask quickly and slightly into the incubator . Then, lay it flat as shown in Step 4. You may choose to either aspirate or pour the media from Multi-layer Flask. 9、Aspirating method: To aspirate or remove media, tilt Multi-layer Flask, with the NEST Logo facing you, counter-clock wise to a 45° angle while inverting the Multi-Flask toward you. Then, tilt Multi-layer Flask to the right, continuing to aspirate all residual media. 10、Pouring method: With Logo facing you, pour spent media from Multi-layer Flask 11、Tips: Aspirate media using a NEST 2 mL or 10mL aspirating pipette. 12、Wash with buffer for one time and add dissociating reagent (≥5mL per layer). Then, follow Steps 3-4 to distribute to dissociating reagent to each layer. 13、Neutralize with inactivating solution and mix following Steps 3-4. Gently swirl to dislodge cells completely. 14、Follow Step 7 “Aspirating Method” protocol and collect cell suspension using a NEST 10mL serological pipette. 15、Follow Step 8 “Pouring Method”. Pour the cell suspension into a NEST conical tube. 16、Rinse with additional wash buffer if needed. 17、Search "NEST Multi-layer Flask" video on NEST website or Youtube.
