CellaZip

Better cells start with a better surface. And a better material underneath it.

CELLAZIP is a ready-to-use, non-biological microplate coating engineered for reproducible cell-based assays across screening, imaging, and research. Stable at room temperature for 24 months.

C2C12 cells, stained for α-Tubulin(Red, anti-α-Tubulin ICC), F-actin (green, phalloidin), and nuclei (blue, Hoechst 33342).

Best in Showcase | 2026 LRIG-NYC Spring Expo Recognized for technical excellence and value to the lab automation community.

What is CELLAZIP™

A chemically synthesized scaffold, uniquely developed by Zeon.

Pre-coated, ready-to-use COP microplates carrying Zeon Corporation’s original surface material. Engineered for adherent cell culture and cell-based assays across drug screening, high-content screening, cell observation, and cancer, neurological, and cell therapy research.

Standard coatings like poly-D-lysine, collagen, laminin, and fibronectin are biological. They require cold storage, carry short shelf lives, and vary lot to lot. CELLAZIP delivers the adhesion those coatings provide, without the animal-derived sourcing or the variability.

 

Why cellazip

Built for the work, ready when you are.

Where biological coatings drift across lots and degrade in storage, CELLAZIP holds.

 

No animal-derived ingredients

Raw materials contain no animal-derived components, suitable for fully animal-free culture environments.

Ready to use

No coating step required. Open the plate and begin culture immediately.

Shelf life & storage

Stored at Room temperature, ready for 24 months.

Stable for 24 months at room temperature after coating, with no cold chain and no loss of cell adhesion. No freezer and no last-minute coating step, so a plate on the shelf is a plate ready to run.

 

Uniform surface

A consistent surface, well to well.​

 

A high-adhesion coating applied evenly across every well, holding cells through long-term culture without detachment. Uniformity your imaging and screening readouts can depend on.

THE PROOF

Adhesion, performance, and consistency you can trust lot to lot.

Where biological coatings drift across lots and degrade in storage, CELLAZIP holds.
