Frequently Asked Questions
What is a T175 cell culture flask used for?
A T175 cell culture flask is designed for the growth, maintenance, and expansion of suspension mammalian cells. With a 175 cm² growth surface, it is commonly used for routine suspension cell culture, cell line maintenance, protein expression, and preparation of cells for downstream assays.
What does Non-Treated mean on a cell culture flask?
Non-Treated refers to a cell culture flask without tissue culture surface treatment. The untreated hydrophobic surface is suitable for suspension cell cultures or applications where cell attachment is not required.
What is the growth area of a T175 flask?
A T175 flask provides a growth surface area of 175 cm² and a maximum volume of 550 mL. This size is commonly used for large-scale suspension cell culture and offers high culture capacity while maintaining convenient laboratory handling.
What is the recommended working volume for a T175 cell culture flask?
Although the maximum volume is 550 mL, most cell culture protocols recommend using approximately 35–55 mL of culture medium in a T175 flask. The optimal volume depends on the cell type and specific experimental requirements.
What is the difference between a vented cap and a sealed cap cell culture flask?
A vented cap contains a 0.2 μm filter that allows sterile gas exchange while helping prevent contamination. Vented cap flasks are typically recommended for incubator-based mammalian cell culture. Sealed cap flasks are better suited for transport, storage, or applications where gas exchange is not required.
Why is a 0.2 μm vent filter important in cell culture flasks?
The 0.2 μm filter allows carbon dioxide and oxygen exchange while reducing the risk of microbial contamination. Proper gas exchange helps maintain stable culture conditions and supports healthy cell growth in CO₂ incubators.
Can this T175 flask be used for suspension cell culture?
Yes. The non-treated surface is suitable for suspension cell lines that do not require attachment for growth. It is commonly used for suspension mammalian cells and other applications where cell adhesion is unnecessary.
Are Biofargo T175 cell culture flasks sterile?
Yes. Biofargo T175 Cell Culture Flasks are individually packaged and sterilized by irradiation. The flasks are supplied ready to use and are suitable for aseptic cell culture applications.
Are these cell culture flasks DNase-free and RNase-free?
Yes. Biofargo T175 flasks are manufactured under strict quality control procedures and are supplied DNase-free and RNase-free, helping protect sensitive cell culture and molecular biology workflows.
What material is used to manufacture the flask?
The flask body is made from high-clarity polystyrene (PS), providing excellent visibility for microscopic observation and routine monitoring of cell cultures. The cap is made of HDPE.
Can these T175 flasks be stacked during incubation?
Yes. The flask design allows stable stacking, helping optimize incubator space while maintaining convenient handling during routine cell culture operations.
What types of applications are T175 non-treated cell culture flasks commonly used for?
T175 non-treated cell culture flasks are widely used for suspension cell culture, hybridoma culture, protein expression, bioprocess development, cell maintenance, and general life science research where cell attachment is not required.
