Porvair Sciences 24 Well Black glass bottom assay plate With Lid Sterile 324042

Porvair Sciences 24-well black glass-bottom assay plate with lid (catalogue 324042) is a sterile, lidded microplate designed for cell culture, imaging and assay applications. The plate combines a polystyrene upper body with a borosilicate glass F-bottom to provide a flat optical plane for microscopy and plate-reader detection while maintaining industry-standard ANSI/SLAS external dimensions and well layout. Primary use cases include cell culture, fluorescence imaging, drug discovery assays and sample storage where low autofluorescence and precise optical properties are required.

Key Features:

• Well count: 24 wells
• Glass thickness: 175 µm
• Base flatness: +/- 30 µm across base
• UV optical cut-off: 335 nm
• Well volume: 3.1 ml (industry-standard layout)
• Temperature range: -196 °C to +60 °C
• Material: Polystyrene body with borosilicate glass F-bottom; ANSI/SLAS footprint

Advantages:

• Very low autofluorescence and high planar flatness for improved imaging and optical detection
• Sterile, lidded format suitable for cell culture and aseptic workflows
• Compatible with automated systems and robot-friendly with uniform external dimensions and alphanumeric well coding
• Resistant to common solvents and reagents (alcohol, DMSO, PBS) and sealable with adhesive films or heat seals
