Grow More Cells with Corning!
Corning® RoboFlask™ Cell Culture Vessels

Corning RoboFlasks are robotics compatible cell culture flasks offering 92.6 cm² cell growth surface area. The flasks are designed for use in automated cell culture systems utilizing a microplate-size format and are compatible with the Tecan Cellerity™ Cell Maintenance and Assay System. (Click here to learn more about the Tecan Cellerity System.) RoboFlask vessels may also be utilized manually in stacks of up to 8 units to maximize the use of incubator space.

Benefits:

Smaller footprint and less than half as thick as a T-75 flask but has 23% more growth area
Removable septum cap for both automated systems and manual applications
Septum cap ensures sterility through multiple entries
Microplate-size footprint for automation
Bar coded for traceability
Built-in hydrophobic vent membrane for efficient gas and liquid exchange
Available with choice of standard tissue culture treatment or with Corning® CellBIND® Surface treatment for improved cell attachment

The robot friendly flasks are compatible with many Tecan automation options including the RoMa arm on the Freedom EVO® and the AutoLoader™.

The pierceable cap of the Corning RoboFlask vessel helps maintain a sealed environment on the Tecan Cellerity System during media exchange. It can be removed for manual access.

Gas Exchange Port: A 2.2cm² hydrophobic venting membrane provides a sterile barrier and ensures proper gas exchange. This membrane will not wet out unless submerged under pressure or comes in contact with organic solvents such as ethanol.

Septum Cap: The septum cap allows for adding or removing cells and solutions with a blunt tip cannula while reducing the opportunity for contamination. The septum is pre-split to prevent coring of the septum by the cannula. The cap allows pipette access (up to 5mL) to assist in harvesting of cells.

Media Recovery Slope:
Molded into every RoboFlask vessel is a 2° slope for easier media and cell recovery.

Space Saving Design: RoboFlask is only 18mm thick! Eight RoboFlasks occupy less incubator space than four T-75 flasks but offers 440 cm² more growth surface.
