Pyramid channel bottom, clear polypropylene
Our Reservoir Plates are perfect for storing volumes of samples to be pipetted into other microplates for further applications. Both plate formats – open format and 12 column format – are compatible with standard 12 and 96 well channel pipettes, and are suitable for automated systems, for instance the PerkinElmer® Sciclone® NGS Workstation.
These plates are manufactured in cleanroom facilities which are certified free of RNase, DNase, human genomic DNA and endotoxins. We use only the highest medical grade virgin polypropylene with high resistance against chemicals such as DMSO, phenol, and chloroform. Pyramid channel bases are best for small volume recovery. The standard SBS footprint ensures its compatibility with automation.
- Polypropylene – has very low biomolecular binding characteristics, a high temperature tolerance and resistance to many standard laboratory chemicals, including DMSO.
- Pyramid Channel Bases – perfect for maximum sample retrieval – even the smallest volume can be retrieved as it gathers in the base of the pyramid, and can be easily taken in by a pipette. Both the open format plate (4ti-0133) and the 12 channel plate (4ti-0131) have pyramid bases.
- Rectangular Channels (4ti-0131) – ensures the best use of space and allow the use of multichannel pipettes
- SBS footprint – compatible with plate readers and ideal for use with automation
- Non-Sterile as standard – sterilisation available upon request
- Suitable as a collection plate from filter systems
- Temperature range for use -80° C to 120°C
- Alphanumeric labelling
- Stackable
- Autoclavable
Barcoding
This plate is available with linear Code 128-format barcodes to aid identification and traceability for your samples. To order your plates with barcodes, simply add /SBC to the end of the ordering code for Standard Single Barcoding, /DBC for Standard Double Barcoding, /TBC for Standard Triple Barcoding, or /QBC for Standard Quadruple Barcoding (see Barcoding for more details).
Sterilisation
Plates can be sterilised on request, please contact us for further information and pricing.
