Description
Non-binding microplates offer a surface chemistry with ultra-low non-specific binding properties. The surface is characterised by low protein, DNA and peptide binding properties to significantly improve data quality especially in biochemical assays. Non-binding surfaces from Greiner Bio-One are achieved through stable chemical modification to covalently link functional groups with the base polystyrene polymer. Under aqueous assay conditions a hydrate layer forms, preventing dissolved biomolecules from binding to the microplate surface. As the non-binding surface is stable under common assay conditions, there is no potential for degradation or leaching and resultant assay interference. Non-binding microplates are featured in 96, 384 and 1536 well formats in black, white or clear, including solid or µClear® film well bottoms.
