Porvair Sciences’ 96-well sample storage plate - the round bottom 1ml deep well microplate – is now available manufactured in the USA.
Produced from ultra-pure grade polypropylene, the plates are certified as RNase/DNase free and contain no measurable contaminants that can leach out and contaminate samples. An independent study* showed that, despite the availability of high-quality polypropylene for deep well microplate production, more than half of the tested plates (not from Porvair) exhibited some form of contamination – typically due to extractable compounds leaching out of the plastic.
Precise designed to ANSI/SLAS footprint dimensions, Porvair round bottom 1ml deep well microplates are fully compatible with automated sample handling systems. The plates’ cylindrical wells with round bottom ensure optimal mixing and recovery of sample.
The plates are available in a range of colours, including a black version for storing light sensitive compounds. The standard rimmed plate incorporates features that eliminate well-to-well cross contamination and enable a high integrity heat seal. For applications requiring insertion of vials, a non-rimmed version is available
