    Step 3: Harvesting

    Collecting and isolating cells may involve centrifugation, depth filtration, and cell detachment. Before proceeding, adherent cells should be detached from the surface of the cell culture flask or dish. Choose to harvest your cells with products from our portfolio. Find cell scrapers, lifters, and reagents, as well as resources to support your workflow.
