Microplates with µClear® film bottom
Black and white film bottom microplates
Fluorescence assays
The 96-well plates are very well made. I love the fact that it has indicators A1, A2, A3 etc. in the corner of each well so you don't need to count each time when pipetting. I use these for fluorescence assays. Great advantage is that the plates are offered in half-area, which allows me to use less sample and reagents, still getting the same sensitivity of the assay. None of the other manufacturers offer that option.

The development of a completely new and patented processing technique has made it possible for us to produce microplates with ultra-thin films, without the use of adhesives or solvents – the µClear® products. This special method eradicates the risk of leaking wells.
The choice of suitable films is the decisive factor, and this will influence the quality of a clear bottom microplate. Strict controls before and during production guarantee a constant quality. Polarised light is only depolarised to a slight degree and the autofluorescence of the microplates is minimized.
The 96 well µClear® microplates and 384 well µClear® microplates have a film thickness of 190 µm +/- 20 µm. In the 1536 well microplates with a transparent bottom (µClear®) the film thickness is 75 µm +/- 10 µm.
