| Microplate Material |
Applications |
| Polystyrene, Clear |
Cell culture and colorimetric (absorbance) assays |
| Polystyrene, Solid Bottom, Black and White |
Fluorescent and luminescent measurements.
Black microplates are typically used for fluorescence measurements such as Green Fluorescence Protein.
White microplates are typically used for luminescent measurements such as Luciferase Reporter Assays.
The critical properties in the above referenced methods such as background, autofluorescence or crosstalk are improved by the use of black or white pigmented microplates. |
| Polystyrene, Clear Bottom, Black and White |
Cell-based assays and microscopy applications. Clear bottom plates allow for top or bottom reading capabilities. |
| Flexible Vinyl (PVC), Clear |
Economical, non-sterile microplates for general assays. |
| Polypropylene |
Compound storage and assays that require high resistance to solvents. |
