Corning Microplate 384 Well with Lid PS Flat Bottom 20 Plates

The Corning 3712 Microplate is a specialized 384-well microplate designed for high-throughput screening and imaging applications. This plate comes with a lid and is constructed from black polystyrene (PS), featuring a clear flat bottom.

The black color of the plate's body is crucial for minimizing background fluorescence and reducing well-to-well crosstalk in sensitive assays. This enhances the signal-to-noise ratio, leading to improved accuracy and sensitivity in fluorescence-based and luminescence assays. Despite the black body, the plate incorporates a clear flat bottom. This design allows for direct, unobstructed microscopic imaging and optical measurements from below the wells, making it ideal for cell-based assays where direct visualization of cells is required. The flat bottom ensures a uniform optical path and consistent focus for automated imaging systems.

The 384-well format provides a high-density platform, enabling the simultaneous processing of a large number of samples, which is essential for efficient screening workflows. The inclusion of a lid helps to maintain a sterile environment, minimize evaporation, and reduce the risk of contamination during incubation or storage. This Corning microplate is a valuable tool for researchers in drug discovery, cell biology, and other fields demanding high-performance optical assays and automated imaging capabilities.
