Porvair Sciences has announced a four-row partitioned reservoir plate that enables aspiration of up to four reagents into a single well space.
The company said this saves deck space on automated liquid handling systems.
The plate is partitioned into four rows, with thin walls to allow pipette tips with strippers to easy reach the bottom of the channelled reservoir.
Each row holds 73ml, providing a total volume of 292ml.
The plates are designed for use with almost any automated liquid handling or pipetting system.
The pyramid bottoms reduce reagent waste by providing a collection area with a dead volume of less than 0.5ml.
The four-row partitioned reservoirs are constructed in ultra-pure, chemically resistant virgin polypropylene to eliminate contamination of samples or reagents with extractables and leachates from the plate material.
An optional polypropylene lid is available to minimise reagent evaporation and enable stacking of reservoir plates.
The reservoirs are available in packs of 25.
