Reliable single-cell suspension preparation for cell culture and flow cytometry workflows.
Corning® Cell Strainers are designed for rapid and consistent preparation of uniform single-cell suspensions from primary tissues, stem cells, blood samples and cultured cells. Featuring strong nylon mesh and colour-coded polypropylene frames, these sterile strainers help simplify sample preparation while maintaining excellent filtration consistency.
Available in 40 µm, 70 µm and 100 µm pore sizes, Corning® Cell Strainers fit all major brands of 50 mL conical centrifuge tubes and are ideal for flow cytometry, primary cell isolation, tissue dissociation and sample cleanup workflows.
- Uniform single-cell suspensions: improves downstream analysis consistency
- Strong nylon mesh: reliable filtration performance with evenly spaced pores
- Colour-coded frames: easy pore size identification
- Fits standard 50 mL tubes: compatible with most major centrifuge tube brands
- Sterile and noncytotoxic: suitable for sensitive cell workflows
- Easy aseptic handling: extended lip allows forceps handling
- Individually packaged: supports sterile workflow environments
- Gamma irradiated: sterility assurance for critical applications
Researchers commonly use Corning® Cell Strainers for flow cytometry sample preparation, stem cell isolation, tissue dissociation, primary culture preparation and removal of aggregates prior to analysis or freezing. One of the major challenges in single-cell workflows is obtaining reproducible suspensions without excessive clumping or debris. Corning® strainers address this through durable nylon mesh and consistent pore geometry, helping improve downstream reproducibility and sample quality.
