The Anti-dropping Manual Top Plate is a 96-well microplate which is widely used in immunological testing. This type of microplate is made from polypropylene and is suitable for a variety of lab work such as liquid chromatography, cell lysis, and protein analysis. In addition, this type of microplate has been successfully applied in many laboratories to test the quality of vaccines.

1. Material

Anti-dropping Manual Top Plate is made of a variety of polymer types, including polystyrene (PS), polypropylene (PP), and copolyester (COP). Each type has advantages and disadvantages for different applications. For example, PS has good autofluorescence and UV transparency while COP can have better mechanical stiffness during molding. Choosing the right material is essential for optimal performance and cost effectiveness of a microplate. Many vendors offer selection guides to help customers select the best microplate for their application. Often, these guides will include specific technical blueprints for each type of polymer. During the selection process, it is important to consider factors such as thermal and mechanical properties, as well as the plate’s volume and surface treatment.

2. Size

Microplates can be manufactured from a variety of materials including polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), and carbonized polyoxymethylene terephthalate (COP). Some vendors have developed microplate selection guides to aid customers in the selection process. The best microplates are typically the smallest and lightest, utilizing high-impact resins with low weight per volume. This is because they are often used in low-profile applications that do not require heavy-duty handling or transportation. The most expensive microplates, on the other hand, are usually injection mold-grade and can be up to a foot in diameter.

3. Color

Anti-dropping Manual Top Plate is available in a variety of colors. For example, gray is the most common color, but it can also be painted black if desired. Some vendors even provide microplate selection guides to help customers choose the appropriate color for their application. If you are not sure which color is right for your project, it is best to consult with a microplate vendor or ask a technician at your local MnDOT office.
