To protect light sensitive samples Porvair Sciences offers a selection of high quality, black microplates and seals that eliminate sample degradation, even over long storage periods.  

Manufactured from ultra-pure grade polypropylene, Porvair black microplates are resistant to a wide range of solvents and have near zero leachates ensuring long-term sample integrity. The black plates are supplied RNase / DNase free meaning they can be used with even the most sensitive biological samples.  Available in a choice of 96-well formats, Porvair black plates are precisely manufactured to applicable ANSI / SLAS dimensions ensuring complete compatibility with almost all readers and automated equipment.    

To prevent evaporation, hydration of DMSO solutions and to completely eliminate light from samples, Porvair Sciences additionally offers a choice of black, light absorbing sealing films that may be applied to the top of the black plates.
