Corning Microplate with Lid 96 Well White Polystyrene Sterile Case of 100 Plates

The Corning 3903 96 Well Microplate with Lid is a tissue culture-treated microplate designed for cell-based assays, luminescence applications, fluorescence measurements, and microscopic observation. Manufactured by Corning, these 96-well white polystyrene microplates feature opaque well walls and optically clear flat bottoms, providing enhanced signal performance while supporting compatibility with both top- and bottom-reading detection instruments.

Technical Performance & Design

• 96-well microplate format for high-throughput laboratory workflows
• White polystyrene construction optimized for luminescence-based assays
• Tissue culture (TC)-treated surface promotes optimal cell attachment
• White-walled wells enhance luminescent signal intensity while minimizing background luminescence and fluorescence
• Opaque well walls reduce well-to-well optical crosstalk
• Optically clear flat-bottom wells support direct microscopic examination
• Thin-bottom design approximately 60% thinner than conventional polystyrene plates
• Enables fluorescence readings down to 340 nm with reduced background interference
• Compatible with both top-reading and bottom-reading plate readers
• Flat-bottom wells with 360 µL total volume capacity
• Recommended working volume range of 75 to 200 µL per well
• Supplied with nonreversible lids featuring condensation rings to help reduce contamination risk
• Sterilized by gamma radiation
• Nonpyrogenic construction
• Individual alphanumeric well identification for sample tracking and workflow accuracy
• Bulk packaged 20 plates per bag
