MTC Bio OptiWell™ D3096-09S | 96-Well Deep Well Plate, Square V-Bottom, 0.5mL, Sterile — 100/Case (10 Bags of 10)

The MTC Bio OptiWell™ D3096-09S is a 96-well deep well plate with square V-bottom wells and 0.5mL capacity per well — sterile by gamma irradiation, virgin medical-grade polypropylene, black printed alpha-numerics, minimal binding and liquid retention, compatible with all popular automated research platforms and robotic equipment including KingFisher™ and Accuris IsoPure™ magnetic bead platforms. OptiWell plates come in 24, 48, 96, or 384 format for virtually every research lab, HTS application, and automated/robotic platform. These plates are useful for bacterial cultures, centrifugation (up to 4,000 × g) and general sample storage. Plates are produced and packaged in a Class 100,000 clean room and are ANSI/SLAS 1-2004 compliant. All plates are certified non-pyrogenic and RNase/DNase free. Sterilized by gamma irradiation. Case of 100 plates — 10 bags of 10 plates each.

D3096-09S vs. D3096-09 — Sterile vs. Non-Sterile: The Only Difference The D3096-09S and D3096-09 are identical OptiWell™ 96-well square V-bottom 0.5mL deep well plates — sterility is the sole difference:

The D3096-09S is the correct choice for labs requiring validated sterility in the 0.5mL square V-bottom format — including sterile bacterial culture, sterile magnetic bead extraction workflows, and any sterile automated liquid handling application at this volume. For non-sterile applications such as compound management, general sample storage, and non-sterile automation, the more economical D3096-09 is the appropriate choice.

Square V-Bottom Wells — Maximum Sample Recovery with Broad Compatibility The square V-bottom well geometry of the D3096-09S combines the maximum sample recovery advantage of a conical V-bottom with the space-maximizing square well cross-section — concentrating sample, beads, and pellets to the absolute lowest point of each well for complete recovery by pipette tip or robotic probe, while the square cross-section provides the maximum volume capacity within the ANSI/SLAS standard 96-well footprint. For sterile automated magnetic bead workflows, sterile compound dilution series, and sterile sample processing where complete well recovery is the primary performance requirement, the square V-bottom geometry of the D3096-09S provides the optimal combination of recovery and volume efficiency in a validated sterile format.

Sterile by Gamma Irradiation — Validated for Bacterial Culture and Sterile Automation Sterile. Sterilized by gamma irradiation. The D3096-09S is sterilized by gamma irradiation — providing validated, reliable sterility without heat damage or residual chemical concerns. The "S" suffix designates the sterile format. Gamma irradiation sterilization qualifies the D3096-09S for bacterial culture at 0.5mL scale, sterile compound preparation, sterile magnetic bead extraction workflows, and any sterile 96-well deep well application requiring the square V-bottom geometry at 0.5mL capacity.

KingFisher™ and Accuris IsoPure™ Compatibility — Now in Sterile Format The D3096-09S carries the same compatibility with KingFisher™ and Accuris IsoPure™ automated magnetic bead extraction platforms as the non-sterile D3096-09 — now in a validated sterile format. For labs running sterile automated nucleic acid extraction workflows where the 0.5mL square V-bottom format is required for wash or elution steps, the D3096-09S provides the correct geometry in a sterile format that meets the sterility requirements of sensitive downstream applications.

0.5mL Per Well — Compact Sterile Deep Well Format The 0.5mL per-well capacity provides meaningful volume over standard sterile microplates (0.2–0.3mL) while maintaining a compact plate height — the preferred format for sterile workflows requiring more volume than a standard microplate without the full depth of a 2.2mL sterile deep well plate. For sterile bacterial culture at small scale, sterile reagent preparation, and sterile automated liquid handling where the 2.2mL format provides excess capacity, the D3096-09S 0.5mL sterile format is the optimal specification.
