Frequently Asked Questions
What is a u-bottom microtest plate used for?
The u-bottom well geometry is designed for uniform sample mixing and liquid retention during hemagglutination and complement fixation assays at LabSupplies.com.
Do I need sterile or non-sterile plates?
Use sterile plates (120038) for cell culture, microbial growth assays, or any application requiring aseptic conditions. Non-sterile plates (120030) work well for ELISA, serial dilutions, sample storage, and reagent preparation.
Are lids included with microtest plates?
No. Lids are sold separately as SKU 129930 (non-sterile) or 129938 (sterile) at LabSupplies.com. Each lid case contains 150 units.
