Frequently asked questions

When should I use black vs white microplates?

Black plates such as Greiner's FLUOTRAC line absorb stray light, reducing background and well-to-well crosstalk in fluorescence assays. White LUMITRAC plates reflect emitted photons to maximize signal in luminescence readouts. Clear polystyrene remains the choice for absorbance and general-purpose work.

What are clear-bottom (µClear) plates for?

µClear plates combine black or white walls with a thin transparent film bottom, enabling bottom-reading fluorescence and cell imaging while keeping optical crosstalk low. They are the standard format for cell-based assays read from below the plate.

Can I quantify DNA directly in a microplate?

Yes — UV-Star plates have a cycloolefin film bottom with an optical window down to about 230 nm, so A260/A280 readings work without quartz cuvettes. They are also free of detectable DNase, RNase, and human DNA, which suits nucleic-acid quantification.

Which binding surface do I need for ELISA?

Greiner's MICROLON polystyrene surfaces come in medium- and high-binding grades; high binding is hydrophilically treated for maximum protein adsorption and is the usual choice for antibody coating. Where nonspecific binding hurts sensitivity, or for reagent storage, non-binding chimney-well plates minimize adsorption of proteins, DNA, and RNA.

How should I seal a microplate — film, CapMat, or lid?

Adhesive films (EASYseal, VIEWseal, AMPLIseal, SILVERseal) give a tight evaporation barrier for PCR, storage, and optical reads, with acrylate or silicone adhesives matched to the application. EVA CapMats seal 96-well formats such as MASTERBLOCK deep-well plates, resist DMSO, and work from -20 °C to +60 °C, though they are not pierceable. Low-profile lids cover plates during short-term handling and incubation.

Where can I buy Greiner microplates in Israel?

Greiner Bio-One assay plates and sealing products are stocked in Israel by Danyel Biotech, the brand's official local distributor — from single cases to screening-campaign volumes, with application advice and fast quotes.

Buying Guide

Pick the well count for throughput — 96 for routine assays, 384 or 1536 for screening — then the color: clear for absorbance, black FLUOTRAC for fluorescence, white LUMITRAC for luminescence, µClear film bottoms for bottom reading and imaging. Match the surface to the assay: MICROLON high binding for ELISA coating, non-binding for adsorption-sensitive work, UV-Star for direct UV quantification, and polypropylene MASTERBLOCK deep-well plates for sample storage. Finish with the right closure — adhesive film, EVA CapMat, or low-profile lid.
