Ultra Clear Cellophane for Drying Gels, 28cm x 50m Roll

The membrane used to air dry gels is the most important component. This ultra clear cellophane provides the optimum porosity to ensure uniform drying and to prevent cracking of gels. RPI Cellophane is autoclavable and commonly used for surface growth of plants,1mold spores, and mushrooms.  Unique pore size allows passage of small molecules, nutrients, and antibiotics for screening purposes.

Outperforms conventional plastic film
Laboratory tested for gel drying
Consistent porosity and quality

Application Note: Cellophane can act as a substrate for germination/plant growth (i.e. fungal spores) while preventing penetration into the growth media. The Ultra Clear Cellophane is a hydrophilic and porous based film that can be autoclaved prior to use. After autoclaving, the cellophane is slightly softer and easier to use. The cellophane allows nutrients to be absorbed by the plant, while preventing roots from embedding into growth media. Clark et. al. accurately measure root hair growth over a one hour period rather than the usual days long technique.
