Functionalized 96-well Plates For Microarrays

In order to take advantage of the existing liquid handling and automation solutions for 96-well SBS formats, PolyAn is offering a range of functionalized multi-well products which are equipped with the same reactive surfaces as our glass and plastic slides.

96-Well-Plate

Functionalized-Polymer-Slides-Table1

Standard polystyrene 96-well plates in different designs which are equipped with PolyAn’s 3D-Epoxy and 3D-NHS reactive matrices for covalent coupling of biomolecules.

Key features:

  • Compatible with all liquid handling systems for ELISA
  • Covalent binding of nucleophiles to the plate surface without complex coupling chemistry
  • Integrated antifouling matrix reduces unspecific binding
  • No cross-contamination between wells possible
  • Most cost-efficient solution

Multipart plates

PolyAn’s multipart plates are comprised of a functionalized glass plate (75 x 110 mm) which is combined with the ProPlate superstructure after the printing process.

Multipart-plate

ProPlate® MTP features a biocompatible, pressure sensitive, adhesive bonding system applied to a bottomless microtiter plate to form a leak-proof seal between wells to isolate microarrays printed on glass or plastic during processing. Designs are available in black polystyrene for the 96 well (round) and 384 well (square) plates, and in black polycarbonate for the 96 well (square) plate, which maximizes the array printing area. Application of the substrate is as simple as peeling off a liner to expose the adhesive and pressing the content to the surface. Alignment of arrays within the wells may be facilitated by means of a fixture (sold separately). This product is often customized for content providers seeking a go-to-market solution for their arrays printed on difficult to bond substrates. Lids and adhesive plate seals are also available both as a packaging solution to protect content and as a means to prevent evaporation during reagent incubation steps. ProPlate MTP products are compatible with several available microarray imagers and most robotic liquid handling platforms.

Functionalized-Polymer-Slides-Table2

Key features:

  • Fast printing on planar surface
  • No electrostatic effects
