Microplates specialise in the manufacture of microplate products,
and they would also like to mention that they serve Life Sciences,
Biotechnology, R&D and Molecular Biology with microplate solutions
for all applications.
This includes sample preparation and high throughput screening with its global distributor network.
Porvair
Sciences have a range of products which includes everything from –
‘vacuum manifolds, sealers, evaporators and microfilter plates in all
popular styles.’ As well as ‘deep well and shallow good storage plates,
assay plates, luciferase reporter gene plates and even liquid handling
reagent reservoirs.’
The microplates company
also provide custom microplate products for life science research,
including 96-well SPE sample preparation. They are designed to work with
filter plates such as ‘Waters, Millipore, Qiagen, Whatman, GE
Healthcare, Varian, Biotage and Porvair.
On their website Microplates,
Porvair Sciences has a storage collection that you can browse through.
First, you have deep, good polypropylene microplates, which are commonly
used for sample storage in life science laboratories. An essential
factor to take into consideration with the manufacture of these plates
is the selection of clean raw materials for injection moulding.
What
is so unique about polypropylene, is that it is an inert and heat
resistant material, which is perfect for sample storage. Although all
grades of polypropylene are not the same, take for instance injection
moulding, grades of polypropylene often have high concentrations of
chemicals to aid the moulding process.
This
then creates rapid production of plates and lowers costs, at the risk
of possibly compromising the integrity of samples or compounds because
they are stored in such plates for extended periods.
The
problem is acute where compounds are stored as solutions in solvents
such as methanol or DMSO, as these excellent solvents tend to extract
from the polypropylene base material any added extractable compounds
such as mould release agents or polymer flow improvers.
According
to the Microplates website, Porvair Sciences has published a detailed
analysis of its own and other manufacturer’s plates, with MS traces, so
that you can compare good and bad performers.
So,
within the storage collection, you have the Deep Well Centrifuge &
GeoGrinder accessories, the deep well square, and the deep well round.
Under
the Deep Well Centrifuge & GeoGrinder accessories, you have the
centrifuge support plate. These are designed to fit into the skirt (the
border) of the deep well plates. This then allows the plate to be used
in a centrifuge without the risk of the plate distorting, cracking or
breaking, causing the well to leak.
For
the Deep Well Square, the family of 96-well square plates were designed
so that they would make the interchange of plates simpler in automated
systems. Interestingly, all of the three plates have the ‘same geometry,
and the only variable’ (the part that can be adjusted) is the excellent
depth.
Then for the Deep Well Round,
the plates are made in virgin polypropylene to minimise extractable.
The working volume is 1ml per well, and the total amount is 1.1ml.
Coloured plates are highly beneficial as they aid identification when
retrieving from storage.
Porvair
Sciences Ltd has a long history of successfully helping customers
develop new and innovative microlitre plates and equipment.
They
also offer quick and efficient solutions to problems from consultancy,
design to speedy prototyping for biotech, pharmaceutical and life
science companies.
