Corning Low Flange Microplate 384 Well Polystyrene Case of 50 Plates

Corning 384-Well Solid White Low Flange Microplates, Flat Bottom, Non-Treated, Non-Sterile (3572) – Case of 50

The Corning 384-Well Solid White Low Flange Microplates (3572) are high-precision assay plates engineered for luminescence assays, high-throughput screening (HTS), and passive biomolecule immobilization. Molded from solid white, high-purity polystyrene, these plates feature opaque well walls designed to minimize well-to-well signal crosstalk and light leakage during sensitive luminescence detection. The non-treated (medium binding) hydrophobic surface facilitates passive binding of large biomolecules, such as antibodies, while the enhanced plate flatness maintains low intra- and inter-plate coefficient of variation (CV) values across automated microplate readers and liquid handling platforms. Supplied as a bulk case of 50 plates (packaged as 5 inner bags of 10 plates each, without lids), this consumable line offers reliable performance for analytical assay workflows.

Technical Performance & Key Attributes

• Opaque Solid White Wall Design: Reflects luminescent signals and reduces well-to-well crosstalk, improving overall signal-to-noise ratios in luminescent bioassays.
• Non-Treated Hydrophobic Surface: Naturally hydrophobic medium-binding polystyrene surface enables passive binding of biomolecules with hydrophobic regions, with an approximate binding capacity of 100 to 200 ng IgG/cm².
• Enhanced Surface Flatness: Precision manufacturing ensures low intra- and inter-plate CVs, making it suitable for automated plate readers and high-density liquid handling robotics.
• ANSI/SLAS Conforming Low Flange Profile: Low flange footprint fits standard plate stackers, incubators, and automated reader transports.

Key Benefits & Applications

• Luminescence Assays & HTS: Solid white walls reflect emitted light toward the reader optics while blocking lateral light transmission to adjacent wells.
• Passive Immobilization & ELISA Protocols: Untreated surface is well-suited for binding antibodies and large proteins via passive hydrophobic interactions.
• Miniaturized Assay Volumes: Recommended working volume range of 20 to 80 µL allows researchers to conserve reagents in high-density screening formats.
• Automated Workstation Compatibility: Low flange skirt design integrates smoothly into robotic grippers, stackers, and automated plate washers.
