Falcon Microplate with Lid Hydrophilic 96 Well Sealed 16 Plates

The Falcon 353377 Microplate with Lid is a specialized laboratory consumable designed for various biological and chemical assays, particularly those requiring specific surface properties. This microplate comes equipped with a lid, which is crucial for maintaining a sterile environment, minimizing evaporation, and preventing contamination during experimental procedures or storage. A key feature of this microplate is its hydrophilic surface. This means the plastic surface has been treated to be water-attracting, which can influence how liquids spread across the surface and how certain molecules or cells interact with the well bottoms. While the well format (e.g., 96-well, 384-well) and material (e.g., polystyrene) are not explicitly stated, Falcon microplates are typically made from polystyrene and are available in various well formats to suit different throughput needs. A hydrophilic surface can be beneficial for specific assays where uniform wetting or controlled interactions with an a
