Protein crystallization
biomat offers high quality crystallization microplates in three different formats.
-
MRC Under Oil 96 well Crystallization Plates
- raised wide wells make the crystal mounting especially easy
- Typical recommended volumes are 200 µl of oil with a shot through sample delivery of 100 to 500 nanolitres: the 20 microlitres volume of the individual wells gives the user a wide range of macromolecular crystallization possibilities
-
2 Well (192 wells)
- MRC Typical volumes are 50-100 µl of reservoir and 10 nl-5 µl drop size. The 192 optical wells offer twice the number of experimental constructions.
- 2 well typically 85 µl per buffer well
-
3 Well (288 wells)
- Typical volumes are 50-100 µl of reservoir and 10 nl-5 µl drop size. The 288 optical wells offer twice the number of experimental constructions.
- 3 well typically 65 µl per buffer well
General features
-
SBS standard
The plates are designed to the 96-well SBS standard for all common holders and external numbering (A-H, 1-12) with corner location make the plate easy to use in a robotic sampler. -
Easy crystal retrieval
Raised wide wells make the crystal mounting especially easy. -
Easy viewing
The wells are a wide conical shape and have a lens effect for perfect illumination -
Reliable sealing
Wide partition walls between the wells give plenty of area for good sealing with tape
No central bending occurs in this very robust structure -
Easy traceability
The micro-numbering ensures you will never get lost again (visible by microscope).
Polymers
Crystallization plates are available both in
- UVP optically superior polymer is UV transmissible and may be used to differentiate between salt and protein crystals.
- PS high quality polystyrene
