Optically clear tissue culture plates have been designed for high content screening (HCS) assays in drug development and related areas. They are also suitable for homogeneous assays, employing fluorescence intensity, FRET and TR-FRET where measurements are bottom-read. The high-quality optical base plate assures the necessary accuracy and consistency for automated high throughput systems, generating optimum signal-to-noise ratios. Using state-of-the-art manufacturing technology, we have developed a product which offers several key advantages to the end user. When visualising fluorescent signals from anything between a single molecule to a whole cell, these plates will give accurate and consistent results. Suitable for cell-bases high content screening (HCS), confocal microscopy, FRET and homogeneous assays, results show an optimum signal-to-noise ratio and a high consistency essential for automated high throughput. Using state of the art technology, we have developed a product which offers key advantages to the end user.

Assembled using unique patented laser welding technology which reduces auto fluorescence and does not inhibit cell growth. Available with 190µm polystyrene base. Available TC treated: Azenta Life Sciences' advanced tissue-culture (TC) treatment method evenly coats each well for optimal cell adhesion properties for highest reproducibility between wells, plates and batches.
