Millipore Introduces MultiScreen^®_HTS+ Filter Plates for Improved Sensitivity

Millipore Corporation, a Life Science leader providing technologies, tools and services for the bioscience research and biopharmaceutical manufacturing industry, today announced the latest addition to the MultiScreen family of filter plates, the MultiScreen_HTS+ for radiometric kinase and GPCR assays.

The MultiScreen_HTS+ filter plate has a mesh backing to create uniformly flowing wells to improve washing efficiency. The new plate design reduces overall non-specific binding and reduces variability in both background and signal intensities. The filter plates allow for higher throughput, greater assay sensitivity and detection flexibility. Validation testing showed a three-fold decrease in well-to-well variability and improved signal-to-noise ratio over traditional filter plates.

Established in 1954 as a high performance filtration products and services company, Millipore has grown into a partner for Life Science customers through R&D investment, organic growth and acquisitions. Companies acquired include Chemicon^®, Upstate^®, Linco^® and NovAseptic^® AB. The integrated Millipore offers you more innovative technologies and stronger application support to streamline your progress and give you more confidence in your results. Our customers work in leading research laboratories across a variety of industries throughout the world. Millipore improves laboratory productivity and efficiency through optimized workflows.
