What are the typical seeding volumes you have for these T-25, T-75, T-150 flasks?



THanks for any ideas.

T-25: 6ml, T-75: 15ml, T-150: 30-40 ml according to:
McAtier, J.A. and Daview, J., Basic Cell Culture. A Practical Approach., Davies, J.M. (Ed) p. 153 (Oxford University Press Inc, New York, 1998).

THanks for any ideas.

Hi there,

Do you mean, how much volume of media can you have in T25, T75s?

If so, then you are right.

T25 - about 5mls
T75 - about 10 - 15 mls
T-150 - about 20-40 mls.

The stated values are good volume ranges for adherent cells however, if you are asking for seeding volumes for suspension cultures try ...

T25: 4-12 ml
T75: 8-40 ml (can do 50 ml if required)
T150: 15-100 ml

with cells at 1 x 10e5 to 2 x 10e5 cells/ml.
