In the dynamic world of scientific research, laboratory equipment is pivotal in driving innovation and discovery. Among the myriad of tools at a scientist’s disposal, 96-well plates and ELISA plates stand out for their versatility and essential role in various experimental protocols. At Stellar Scientific, we understand the critical nature of these tools and are committed to providing high-quality products that meet the stringent demands of modern laboratories.
Understanding 96-Well Plates
96-well plates, also known as microplates or microwell plates, are ubiquitous in laboratories performing high-throughput screening, cell culture, and quantitative assays. These plates consist of a rectangular array of wells, typically 8 rows by 12 columns, facilitating the simultaneous processing of multiple samples under identical conditions.
Key features of Stellar Scientific’s 96-well plates include:
- High-Quality Material: Manufactured from optically clear, medical-grade polymers to ensure reliable and reproducible results.
- Uniformity: Precision-engineered wells that offer consistent volume and shape, minimizing variability and enhancing experimental accuracy.
- Compatibility: Designed to fit standard microplate readers and automated systems, enabling seamless integration into existing workflows.
- Versatility: Available in various formats, including flat-bottom, round-bottom, and U-bottom, to accommodate diverse applications.
Applications of 96-Well Plates
- High-Throughput Screening (HTS): Essential in pharmaceutical research for the rapid screening of thousands of compounds.
- Cell Culture: Ideal for culturing cells in a controlled environment, suitable for both adherent and suspension cell lines.
- Quantitative Assays: Frequently used in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs), PCR, and other biochemical assays to measure analytes with high precision.
ELISA Plates: Precision in Immunoassays
ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) plates are a specialized type of microplate designed specifically for immunoassays. These plates are crucial for detecting and quantifying antibodies, antigens, proteins, and other molecules in a sample.
Stellar Scientific’s ELISA plates are crafted with meticulous attention to detail to ensure optimal performance:
