Solid Bottom Microplates

96-well black, white & black with white wells

Porvair Sciences range of solid bottom 96-well assay plates is specifically designed for absorbance, fluorescence, luminescence and scintillation applications. The design uses the most popular 96-well format with standard ‘chimney’ wells to overcome optical crosstalk and contamination.

These plates are designed to give optimum results from any instrument which reads from the top of the plate.

• The acclaimed composite black/white plate has been shown to be ten times more sensitive than a standard white plate for chemi-luminesence assays.
• Black plates designed for top reading fluorescence instruments
• Black plates have low background fluorescence and minimise light scattering
• White plates maximise signal for luminescence readers
• Highly polished well to give better readings
• Specially designed plate featuring a white well set in a black matrix to overcome the problem of a very high luminescence causing false positives
• Working volumes of 350µl/well
• Complies with the standard ANSI/SBS format
• Alphanumerically labelled wells mean samples can be easily traced

384-well plates

384-well assay plates from Porvair Sciences are available in black, white and clear. These have been optimised for fluorescence, luminescence/scintillation and ELISA/turbidity measurements respectively. There are two working volumes: 30µl/well or 120µl/well. All 384-well assay plates are available in standard, high bind and tissue culture treated formats.

Square well plates

The 384-well format, with its higher density of wells, allows more work to be carried out in a standard sized plate, aiding higher throughput. Well volume is 120µl per well. All of these plates are manufactured from high quality polystyrene.

• Designed to reduce well-to-well crosstalk

• Black plates have low background fluorescence and minimise light scattering
• White plates enhance bio- & chemi-luminescence signals and have low background luminescence and fluorescence
• Well working volumes of 100µl
• Rounded square at the well bottom to reduce wicking
• Low residual volume
• Designed to the standard ANSI/SBS format
• Alphanumerically labelled wells mean samples can be stored and easily traced
