Porvair Sciences has launched a reinforced base version of its 96-well deep round microplate (P/N 219020), which has a working volume of 2ml per well and can be routinely centrifuged at up to 6000g*.
Manufactured from ultra-pure grade polypropylene, the plates are certified as RNase/DNase free and contain the lowest possible level of contaminants that may leach out and affect the sample. Designed to a standard ANSI/SLAS 96-well plate footprint, the plates are fully automation compatible.
The product has a reinforced base and incorporates features to prevent 'locking' when stacked and enable easy heat sealing. Cylindrical wells with round bottoms ensure optimal mixing and recovery of sample.
For sterile biological applications, Porvair 2ml 96-well deep round plates are available irradiated. A matching thermoplastic elastomer ‘cap mat’ provides easy friction sealing of this plate for transport, shipping and short-term storage. For longer periods, the plate can be heat sealed using Porvair Sciences’ aluminium or clear heat seals, together with the company's Miniseal II thermal sealer to provide a range of peelable, pierceable and re-sealable storage options.
