Sterile Deep-well plates ..

Specialists in innovative microplate technology, Porvair Sciences, have announced a range of sterile deep-well plates that provide the ideal medium for storage applications and high yield growth of bacteria, yeast and cell lines.

Produced under class 10,000 clean room conditions from ultra-pure grade polypropylene, the deep-well plates contain no contaminants that may leach out and affect the stored sample or bacterial or cell growth. Every batch of plates is rigorously tested to validate their contamination-free status. Porvair sterile deep-well plates are available in a choice of well formats (96- and 384-well) and well volumes from 300 µl to 2 ml to suit most growth and sample storage applications. Each pack of five sterile deep-well plates is sealed in a virgin polymer bag before passing through an irradiation process to sterilise the product.

Precision engineered to the strictest tolerances all Porvair sterile deep-well plates have the plate-to-plate reproducibility required for uninterrupted automated applications.

For maintenance of sample integrity in storage scenarios, Porvair Sciences also offers premium grade 96- and 384-well sealing mats that provide a durable and tight seal against sample evaporation and possible contamination. Offering a working range of -80 to +100 degrees centigrade the sealing mats allow deep-well plates stored at room temperature to be stored in a freezer or placed in a boiling water bath without loss of sample integrity.
