Product catalog summary
Introduction
Deep well polypropylene microplates are crucial for sample storage in life science labs. The selection of clean raw materials for injection moulding is vital, as different polypropylene grades can affect sample integrity, especially in solvents like methanol or DMSO. Porvair Sciences tested various plates for extractables, finding their plates had minimal contamination.
Specifications and Features
  • Made from inert, heat-resistant polypropylene.
  • Available in various well shapes and volumes, compliant with ANSI/SLAS standards.
  • DNase/RNase free, manufactured in clean room conditions.
Product Range
  • 96-Well Shallow Round Plates: Capacities of 350µl, 270µl, and 220µl with different bottom shapes.
  • 96-Well Deep Square Plates: For automated systems, with 350µl, 1ml, and 2ml capacities.
  • Deep Well Round Plates: Made from virgin polypropylene, available in 1ml and 2ml capacities.

Porvair deep well plates brochure 2018-2

Deep well polypropylene microplates are commonly used for sample storage in life science laboratories. An essential aspect of the manufacture of these plates is the selection of clean raw materials for injection moulding. Polypropylene is an inert and heat resistant material, ideal for sample storage. However, all grades of polypropylene are not the same, for example, Injection moulding grades of polypropylene often have high concentrations of chemicals to aid the moulding process. This allows rapid production of plates and lower costs, but may compromise the integrity of samples or compounds...
