Array plates are compliant to the SBS (Society for Biomolecular Screening) standard with a bottom made from a 170μm cover glass. The complete plate provides a single large area for:
• imaging
• array spotting
• cultivation
Array Plates can be used for high resolution cell, tissue or array microscopy. The plates are suitable for a wide range of fixation and staining protocols (formaldehyde, glutaraldehyde, alcohols, acetone). Acetone should not be applied for periods longer than 10 minutes since the plate body is made from polystyrene and the plate body can detach from the glass bottom. Array Plates can be used at temperatures between -20°C and 50°C.
Cell adhesion, spreading and distribution are improved by our proven plasma surface modification technology. The cover glass plate bottoms make the plates suitable for the application of high resolution immersion objectives. Water, glycerin and oil can be used as immersion medium.
They are free of detectable DNase, RNase and human DNA, free of detectable endotoxins and free of cytotoxic substances.
*TC = Tissue Culture, amine coated surface, suitable for most adherend cell lines (e.g. HEK U293, HepG2, MCF-7). Sensitive cell lines (e.g. PC-12) and some primary cell types benefit from additional surface coatings with ECM proteins or equivalent coatings.
