In today's life science research and drug discovery fields, high-throughput screening (HTS) has become an indispensable technology. However, as experimental scales expand and reagent costs rise, balancing detection sensitivity with cost reduction has become a major challenge for researchers. The newly launched KeyTec® 96-Well White Flat Low-Volume Microplates (Catalog No.: M2000702N) from VKEY-BIO is designed to address this challenge.
The KeyTec® 96-Well White Flat Low-Volume Microplates is specifically optimized for TR-FRET, chemiluminescence, Alpha, and isotope detection assays. Its unique design perfectly accommodates reaction volumes below 40 µL, effectively balancing sample quantity, detection volume, and signal intensity. By positioning the liquid surface closer to the detection probe, it significantly improves signal acquisition efficiency while ensuring detection sensitivity and drastically reducing reagent usage.
In drug screening experiments, reagent costs often represent one of the largest expenses. VKEY-BIO’s 96-Well White Flat Low-Volume Microplates reduces reaction volumes to 20-40 µL, saving over 50% in reagent consumption compared to traditional 96-well plates. This translates to substantial cost savings for large-scale screening projects.
This microplate is made of high-quality polystyrene (PS) with medium binding capacity, non-sterile, and lid-free. Its precision molding process ensures high well-to-well uniformity and mechanical strength, fully meeting the stringent demands of high-throughput screening.
Well-to-Well Uniformity: Precision manufacturing ensures consistent signals across wells.
Signal Enhancement: White well bottoms enhance light reflection, improving detection signal strength.
Automation Compatibility: Fully compatible with mainstream automated platforms, boosting experimental efficiency.
Microvolume Optimization: 20-40 µL working volume, significantly reducing reagent consumption.
Stability and Reliability: Polystyrene material offers excellent chemical stability and mechanical strength.
The KeyTec® 96-Well White Flat Low-Volume Microplates stands out for its unique shallow-well design. Traditional deep-well plates suffer from signal attenuation due to the greater distance between the liquid surface and the detection probe in microvolume reactions. The shallow-well design brings the liquid surface closer to the detection window, greatly improving signal acquisition efficiency.
Additionally, the flat-bottom design ensures even liquid distribution, making it ideal for experiments requiring optical readings. The 96-well format meets the needs of medium-throughput experiments while avoiding the high skill and equipment demands of ultra-high-throughput plates, making it an ideal choice for most laboratories.
As the newest addition to the KeyTec® microplate series, the 96-Well White Flat Low-Volume Microplates further enriches VKEY-BIO’s product line. The company now offers a full range of microplates, from 96-well to 384-well and 1536-well formats, to meet various experimental needs.
For users requiring higher throughput, VKEY-BIO’s 384-Well Flat Low-Volume Microplates (Catalog No.: M2000102N/M2000202N) and 1536-Well Microplates (Catalog No.: M2000502N/M2000602N) are also worth considering. These products adhere to the same quality standards and manufacturing processes, with working volumes ranging from 4 µL to 100 µL, catering to needs from basic research to drug discovery.
To maximize the performance of KeyTec® microplates, VKEY-BIO also offers a range of compatible accessories:
1. KeyTec® Fluorescent High-Transparency Microplate Top Seals (Catalog No.: M1000102N): Allows direct reading without film removal, preventing evaporation and contamination, ideal for long incubation experiments.
2. KeyTec® White Microplates Bottom Seals (Catalog No.: M1000301N/M1000302N): Blocks bottom light, enhancing top signal values and detection sensitivity.
3. KeyTec® Tin Foil Microplates Top Seals (Catalog No.: M1000402N): Provides perfect light protection for light-sensitive experiments.
VKEY-BIO not only delivers high-quality products but also strives to provide complete experimental solutions. From microplates to sealing films, our products undergo rigorous quality control to ensure batch-to-batch consistency, which is critical for long-term tracking experiments.
