Black and white 384 well MatriCal microplates MatriCal microplate with the cropped pyramid 384 and 1536 microwell design
Inverted, cropped
pyramid well design
High throughput microwell plates:
  • enhances assay signal through better light transfer
  • directs automated 96 or 384 pipettor tips into sample wells
  • eliminates vapor lock bubble formation
  • ensures easier scaling
MatriPlates feature an inverted, cropped-pyramid well design which: All MatriCal plate dimensions strictly adhere to ANSI and the Society of Biomolecular Screening (SBS) standards and offer superior surface and well bottom flatness.
The unique, patented MatriPlate microwell design optimizes liquid handling and robotics integration to provide unmatched results for high throughput assays of all types, including fluorescence, luminescence, and chemiluminescence.

MatriCal currently provides the following plates:

Our manufacturing and quality programs tightly control the production and validation of our products to ensure the highest level of error-free performance with all automated assay instrumentation. A specification sheet is included in every case of plates that describes the ANSI/SBS specifications and shows you the exact footprint dimensions and well position. When you are ready to set up a device to use these plates, all you have to do is program the numbers provided and you can be guaranteed to hit the center of each well. This specification sheet will help take the guesswork out of setting up your equipment.

MatriPlate assay and storage plates can be obtained in a variety of materials and formats, to meet almost every application need. Material options include polystyrene, virgin polypropylene, Teflon coated polypropylene, and a unique proprietary Low Fluorescent plastic. Low volume assay plates have been designed to conserve valuable reagents and compounds. Products are available bar coded, sterile, and tissue culture treated. Please see each specific product for additional details.
