Product news

Porvair Sciences Ltd. has announced a new sterile 96-well Shallow Polypropylene Plate that offers a capacity of just 150µL per well reducing reagent costs and round well bottoms to ensure good mixing. Supplied sterile and DNA/RNA free in bags of 25, packed four to a case of 100, the new plates are an ideal tool for undertaking bacterial, yeast or cell growth work.

Manufactured from natural ultra-pure grade polypropylene under clean room conditions - Porvair's 96-well shallow polypropylene plate contains no contaminants that may leach out and affect biological samples. Bulk packs of suitable sterile lids are also available, so that the inconvenience of unwrapping individual sterile plates in a safety cabinet is completely eliminated. Beneficially the design of the shallow polypropylene plate positions samples much closer to analyser detectors, resulting in increased counting efficiencies.

Combining uncompromising high quality with an affordable price, Porvair 96-well shallow polypropylene plates are precisely manufactured to comply with ANSI/SBS dimensions* ensuring complete compatibility with all microplate readers, washers and automated equipment.

Cell / Tissue CultureCell culture or tissue culture is used to study the biology of cells or tissues and to isolate cellular products in an environment which can be manipulated and well defined. Accurately control your culture environment with bioreactors or culture incubators, bind your cells to a surface or together with an extracellular matrix. Distinguish cell types with differential media or proliferate cells with certain characteristics using selective media. Enrich your media with supplements such as growth factors, sera and vitamins.

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.

Microorganisms are a useful research tool as genetic vectors and, in immunology, for antibiotic susceptibility testing, cellular biology and genetics. Microorganisms commonly grow readily in incubators with microbial culture media; this can contain chromogenic supplements to differentiate between cell lines. Estimate your culture’s density of microorganisms with colony counters, or screen and select colonies for desirable clones with automated colony pickers. Additionally, equipment is available to monitor environments for the presence of microbes and identify with microbial identification instruments.

Consequently, the importance of high-quality DNA/RNA extraction and purification equipment cannot be underestimated. Many purification kits are available and are typically optimized for nucleic acid type and source, including plasmid DNA, genomic DNA, mRNA, RNA and viral nucleic acid purification kits. Automated extraction and purification of nucleic acids can be implemented with magnetic bead separator instruments or high-throughput purification workstations.
