BRANDplates® – the new range of microplates

The new 96-, 384- and 1536-well microplates from BRAND are available in a wide variety of bottom shapes (U-/V-/F-/C-bottom) and materials (transparent, white and black). Specific surface treatment results in 8 different surface types to fulfil the needs of a broad range of cell culture-, immunology- and standard-applications.

The new BRANDplates^® are manufactured under clean room conditions according ISO 14644-1 class 5 to 8, are tested in independent accredited laboratories and can be used for the most demanding tasks.

BRANDplates^® are available in 8 different surface types:

• Non-treated: pureGrade^TM, pureGrade^TM S
• Immuno-treated: immunoGrade^TM, hydroGrade^TM, lipoGrade^TM
• Tissue culture treated: cellGrade^TM, cellGrade^TM plus, cellGrade^TM premium

Plates are alphanumerically labelled, stackable and compatible with most standard readers and washers. They meet the standards ANSI/SBS 1-2004 through ANSI/SBS 4-2004.

Standard microplates with 96-wells bear a colored alphanumeric code identifying the surface type (Color-code for tissue culture plates: orange, for immuno plates: blue). White plates provide maximum reflection and minimum crosstalk during luminescence measurements, black plates provide minimum back light scatter during fluorescence analyses.
