Product news
Strata™ Impact from Phenomenex is designed to provide clean and efficient protein precipitation. This revolutionary plate offers the following benefits over current technologies on the market.
- Solvent compatible membranes that will not leak acetonitrile
- Direct in plate precipitation allows for reduced sample handling and transfer steps
- Precipitation that is free of cross contamination, clogging, or particulates
- Elimination of non-specific binding of analytes to filter membranes or
- 2mL 96-well plate format for large and small volume samples
Strata Impact plates are compatible with a wide variety of manifolds, liquid handlers and robotic workstations. Contact Phenomenex today for more information or a free sample.

Lab-on-a-ChipLab-on-a-chip (LOC) technology uses microfluidic chips, such as microarrays, to perform biochemical assays on a small scale. Benefits of lab-on-a-chip include the small volume of sample required as well as the speed of analysis. In selecting lab-on-a-chip devices consider the assay, cost, reliability, sensitivity and signal to noise ratio.MicroplatesMicroplates are multi-well plates used to increase the throughput of biological investigations. The number of wells microplates contain can range from 6 to 3243 wells, with the 96-well format being the most commonly used. Microplates can come tailored for a range of applications including cell culture, PCR, filtration, storage, non-binding surface, protein crystallization, as well as pre-coated, deep well and normal Standard microplates. Additionally, options for microplate colors include clear , black, white or black with clear bottom and white with clear bottom for absorbance microplate reader applications.

Tools used in proteomics include chromatography, blotting and gels, protein arrays, mass spectrometry and ELISA and associated analysis software. Analyzers and proteomic systems should be sensitive, high resolution, fast and may be automated for high-throughput.
