Globe Scientific Microplate 96 Well Case of 50 Plates

Globe Scientific 120138 Microtest Plate – 96-Well, V-Bottom, Polystyrene, Sterile

The Globe Scientific 120138 is a standard-format 96-well microtitration plate designed for general, non-tissue culture laboratory applications, including high-throughput serology, clinical chemistry, sample dilutions, and microbiology assays. Molded from premium, high-optic transmission grade virgin polystyrene (PS), this plate features a specialized V-bottom (conical) well geometry. This tapered design concentrates precious fluids and precipitates directly at the absolute center of the well bottom, minimizing dead volume and making it ideal for automated liquid handling systems, microvolume aspirations, and pellet formation. Arranged in a standard 12 × 8 matrix, the plate includes crisp molded alphanumeric row and column markings for error-free sample mapping.

Technical Performance and Design

• Conical V-Bottom Wells: The steeply tapered well geometry forces fluids and pelleted microparticles into a concentrated apex point. This maximizes supernatant recovery, ensures highly efficient sample aspiration, and minimizes liquid retention metrics.

• High Optic Transmission Grade Polystyrene: Offers exceptional structural clarity, allowing for reliable vertical light transmission and unambiguous macroscopic visual inspections of colorimetric or precipitative reactions.

• Individually Wrapped Sterile Barrier: Every plate arrives pre-sterilized via gamma irradiation and is individually sealed inside a protective peel-apart blister pack, guarding the non-tissue culture wells from cross-contamination and dust entry prior to deployment.

• Standardized Automation Footprint: Adheres strictly to standard ANSI/SLAS microplate dimensional profiles, guaranteeing precise alignment with automated plate washers, multichannel pipettes, robotic sample handlers, and microplate readers.

Key Benefits & Applications

• Serology & Agglutination Testing: The standard choice for visual agglutination assays, blood typing, and precipitation screens, as the V-bottom layout cleanly concentrates bound cellular clumps.

• Micro-Volume Sample Archiving: Perfect for compounding master mixes, performing serial dilutions, or handling low-volume chemical libraries where minimizing dead volume is essential to preserve rare analytes.

• Non-Tissue Culture Assays: Specifically treated for low-binding, non-adherent protocols such as general microbiology tracking, sample storage, and enzyme-linked assays that do not require cellular attachment chemistry.

• Robotic Fluidics Integration: Reinforced structural sidewalls resist bending under high-downforce multichannel pipetting heads or robotic plate-gripper mechanical handling.
