About CORNING

Corning is a materials science company with a long history in glass and ceramics, founded in 1851 in Corning, New York. The company's life sciences segment produces laboratory consumables such as microplates, cell culture vessels, and specialty surfaces, while its optical communications segment supplies fiber optic components and accessories. 3G Electric distributes Corning products across these categories, serving laboratories, data centers, and industrial facilities worldwide.

The Corning product range available through 3G Electric includes multiple well plates, cell culture plates, fiber optic connector cleaners, and splicing resin encapsulant pouches. The microplates are offered in 96-well and 384-well formats, with black or white polystyrene bodies and square well shapes. Surface treatments include nonbinding and tissue culture treated options. Black plates reduce optical crosstalk for fluorescence-based assays, while white plates are used for luminescence applications. Nonbinding surface treatment minimizes biomolecule adsorption. These plates are non-sterile or sterile depending on the model, and some are not RNase/DNase free. They are compatible with high-throughput screening and cell-based assays.

Fiber optic connector cleaners from Corning are designed for cleaning unmated connector end faces. Models include fixed or rotating tips, straight configurations, and options for LC connectors. Each cleaner provides 525 cleaning cycles and includes an integrated dust cap. These are used in data centers and telecommunications environments to maintain signal integrity.

The splicing resin encapsulant is supplied in molded resin pouches, each containing 9.8 oz of encapsulant rated for 268 V maximum. The resin is re-enterable and provides adhesive and electrical properties for encapsulation. It is available in bags of 12 pouches.

3G Electric supports the Corning line by stocking these products and providing global shipping. Technical buyers can source specific part numbers, such as 3540, 3542, CLEANERPORT-2.5, CLEANERPORT-LC, and 8882-RE-ENCAP-290ML, through 3G Electric's catalog. The distributor offers product data and specifications to assist with selection. For laboratories and network operators requiring Corning consumables, 3G Electric provides a procurement channel with worldwide reach.

Common Applications

  • Pharmaceutical research — Corning 96-well nonbinding plates (SKU 196HY8) for fluorescence-based assays with reduced biomolecule adsorption.
  • High-throughput screening — Corning 384-well black polystyrene plates (SKU 196TJ1) for optical crosstalk reduction in luminescence assays.
  • Cell culture — Corning 384-well tissue culture treated plates (SKU 196TJ5) for cell attachment and high-throughput cell-based studies.
  • Data center maintenance — Corning fiber optic connector cleaner (CLEANERPORT-LC) for cleaning LC connector end faces.
  • Telecommunications — Corning one-push fiber optic cleaner (CLEANERPORT-2.5) for unmated connector maintenance in network installations.
  • Cable splicing — Corning splicing resin encapsulant (8882-RE-ENCAP-290ML) for electrical insulation and mechanical protection in splice closures.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about CORNING from 3G Electric.

What are the differences between Corning 96-well and 384-well multiple well plates?

Corning multiple well plates are available in 96-well and 384-well formats. The 96-well plates, such as SKU 196HY8, have square wells and a nonbinding surface treatment on black polystyrene. The 384-well plates, like SKU 196TJ1 and 196TJ6, also feature square wells but differ in body color and surface treatment. Black plates reduce optical crosstalk for fluorescence assays, while white plates are used for luminescence. Some 384-well plates are non-sterile and not RNase/DNase free. Selection depends on assay type, throughput, and detection method.

How many cleaning cycles do Corning fiber optic connector cleaners provide?

Corning fiber optic connector cleaners, including models CLEANERPORT-2.5, 2104466-01, and CLEANERPORT-LC, provide 525 cleaning cycles per unit. They are designed for cleaning unmated connector end faces and include an integrated dust cap. The cleaners are available with fixed or rotating tips and straight configurations. The LC model is specifically for LC connectors. These cleaners are used in data centers and telecommunications to maintain connector hygiene.

What is the voltage rating of Corning splicing resin encapsulant?

The Corning splicing resin encapsulant, supplied in molded resin pouches (MPN 8882-RE-ENCAP-290ML), is rated for 268 V maximum. Each pouch contains 9.8 oz of encapsulant. The resin is re-enterable and provides adhesive and electrical properties for encapsulation. It is available in bags of 12 pouches. This product is used for splicing applications where electrical insulation and mechanical protection are required.

Are Corning multiple well plates sterile or RNase/DNase free?

Sterility and RNase/DNase status vary by Corning multiple well plate model. For example, SKU 196TJ1 (384-well, black polystyrene) is non-sterile and not RNase/DNase free. SKU 196TJ5 is a 384-well cell culture plate that is tissue culture treated and sterile, but also not RNase/DNase free. SKU 196HY8 is non-sterile. Buyers should verify the specific part number's specifications before use in sensitive applications. 3G Electric provides detailed product data for each SKU.

What surface treatments are available on Corning multiple well plates?

Corning multiple well plates come with different surface treatments. Nonbinding surface treatment is available on models like SKU 196HY8 (96-well) and SKU 196TJ6 (384-well), which reduces biomolecule adsorption. Tissue culture treated plates, such as SKU 196TJ5, promote cell attachment. The choice depends on the assay: nonbinding surfaces are used for homogeneous assays, while tissue culture treated surfaces are for cell-based studies. Plates are made of polystyrene with square wells and black or white body colors.

Can Corning fiber optic connector cleaners be used for LC connectors?

Yes, the Corning fiber optic connector cleaner with MPN CLEANERPORT-LC is specifically designed for LC connectors. It features a fixed, straight tip and provides 525 cleaning cycles. It includes an integrated dust cap for cleaning unmated connector end faces. Other models, such as CLEANERPORT-2.5 and 2104466-01, are for different connector types. The LC model is suitable for data center and telecommunications applications where LC connectors are common.
