96 Well Bacterial Growth Plate
The high-throughput Bacterial Growth plate can simplify and accelerate the growth of 96 individual 1.5 ml bacterial cultures. It is used for both overnight cultivation and the initial 'spin down' of bacteria. Made of medical grade polypropylene with a clear polystyrene lid, this gamma-irradiated plate eliminates the need to grow multiple, discrete cultures. It also optimizes space and efficiency in the incubator.
Whatman has demonstrated that culture integrity is not affected by the close proximity of neighbouring cultures and that each culture grows to the same density as it would in individual culture tubes (at 325 rpm and 37°C for 16 hours).
Features and benefits
- Consistent cell densities across all 96 wells
- Eliminates cross contamination between wells
- Growth comparable to individual test tubes
- Ability to automate allows for increased productivity
