Product Description
LIGHT LABS is proud to offer the CELLTREAT 96-Well Flat Bottom Non-Treated Microplate (Cat # 229597) — a premium, sterile, non-tissue-culture-treated 96-well plate with flat bottom wells, packaged individually without a lid. The non-treated polystyrene surface is specifically designed for applications requiring minimal or no cell attachment — including colorimetric and absorbance-based assays, bacterial culture, compound storage, and high-throughput screening workflows where a flat optical bottom is essential for accurate plate reader measurements.
Flat bottom wells deliver a uniform optical path across the entire well surface — making the 229597 the preferred choice for colorimetric ELISAs, absorbance-based cell viability assays, compound dilution and storage, and other applications where optical consistency across all 96 wells is critical. Unlike tissue-culture-treated plates where the surface chemistry can interfere with certain assay chemistries, the non-treated polystyrene surface of the 229597 is chemically inert — making it suitable for assays where protein adsorption to the well surface must be minimized or precisely controlled.
Manufactured from crystal-clear, high-quality polystyrene and sterilized by gamma irradiation, the 229597 is certified nonpyrogenic and RNase-/DNase-free. Alpha-numeric well markings (A–H, 1–12) on every plate enable easy identification of individual wells for accurate sample tracking. Without-lid format is ideal for use with plate sealers, adhesive films, breathable membranes, or applications not requiring a lid. Individually packaged for contamination prevention, with 50 plates per sleeve and 2 sleeves per case. LIGHT LABS is your trusted source for CELLTREAT laboratory plasticware.
