The coloured marking on the cell culture bottles, dishes and plates represents the surface of the cell culture tube. In order to meet the requirements for as many different cell types as possible, we offer flasks, dishes and plates with three different growth surfaces:

- Red: The hydrophilic standard growth surface provides an optimum culture substrate for the most adherent cells.

- Yellow:  The yellow Cell+ growth surface was developed for particularly sensitive adherent cells (e.g. primary cells, sensitive cell culture lines and cells which are cultivated under serum-reduced/serum-free conditions). Due to its properties, the Cell+ surface can make the use of coated culture vessels redundant in many cases.

- Green: We have a hydrophobic growth surface for suspension cells. The hydrophobic surface is particularly suitable for the cultivation of suspension cells and minimises cell losses during the sub-cultivation due to unwanted microadhesion.
