Description
Cell culture inserts for 12-well plates are polyethylene terephthalate (PET) membrane inserts with a 0,4 µm pore size for cell-cultivation work in multiwell systems. Inserted into standard 12-well culture plates, they create apical and basolateral compartments so nutrients and soluble factors can diffuse across the membrane while cells grow on the insert. Fine 0,4 µm pores are commonly used when free molecular exchange is desired and cells should be retained on the membrane surface, supporting co-culture, transport and barrier-type experiments in microbiology, molecular biology and cell-culture laboratories. The pack provides 48 pc(s) at a stated weight of 0,160 kg. PET membrane inserts are a familiar choice for adherent and epithelial culture formats that rely on permeable supports. Supplied by manufacturer BRAND, they match standard 12-well plate dimensions and fit smoothly into established laboratory protocols without additional adapters. Defining material, pore size and pack quantity helps laboratories select the correct insert for permeability assays, multiwell co-culture setups and routine cell-culture accessory requirements.
This article belongs on Cell culture plates & dishes, in Cell culture.

Questions about Cell culture inserts for 12-well, PET, 0.4 µm, 48 unit(s)
What is this article?
Cell culture inserts for 12-well, PET, 0.4 µm, 48 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes BRAND for laboratory use. It sits in Cell culture plates & dishes, inside Cell culture, in Life Science & Microbiology.
Plates and dishes for cells are chosen by well number, growth area and surface treatment. A 96-well plate for an assay and a 6-well plate for growing cells up are different tools. Optical-bottom plates are for microscopy. Tissue-culture treatment is a stated surface, not every plastic dish.
Cell culture grows cells outside the body. The medium, often with serum, supplies what the flask does not. A flask or a dish is the vessel, treated so the cells attach or left untreated so they float. Contamination by microbes, or by another cell line, is the ordinary failure. Cold-chain articles in this work, including serum, are never part of free standard delivery. Lines are catalogued by ATCC. Papers are on PubMed. Practice is summarised by the WHO laboratory biosafety topic.
