Novel Microplate Design from Porvair Sciences Eliminates Well-to-Well Crosstalk
18 Jun 2013To address performance limiting well-to-well crosstalk inherent in most assay plates – Porvair Sciences has developed the Krystal 2000 microplate range.
Incorporating unique individual clear cups molded into either a black or white polypropylene matrix – crosstalk is eliminated and the sensitivity, photometric accuracy and repeatability of your bottom reading absorbance, fluorescence and luminescence measurements markedly improved.
Maintaining industry standard 96-well microplate dimensions the Krystal 2000 range is fully compatible with all commercially available plate readers, robotic sample processors and automated liquid handling systems.
Constructed in ultra-pure grade polystyrene, Krystal 2000 microplates are available in opaque white, solid black and black and white combination formats. For sensitive fluorescence measurements the black plate provides the all-absorbing background needed to minimise background interference. The opaque white plate maximises reflectivity enabling even weakly emitting luminescence assays to be routinely undertaken.
