Corning® 384-Well Black Flat Bottom Polystyrene NBS Microplates – Nonsterile, Without LidHigh-Performance Microplates for Fluorescent Assays and Low-Binding ApplicationsCorning® 384-Well Black Microplates are engineered for high-sensitivity fluorescence and luminescence assays. Featuring a proprietary Nonbinding Surface (NBS™), these plates minimize molecular interactions, making them ideal for low-concentration protein and nucleic acid work. Constructed from crystal-grade polystyrene with solid black walls, they offer reduced autofluorescence and enhanced signal-to-noise ratios.Available in both standard and low-volume formats, these microplates support miniaturized assay workflows and are validated for compatibility with automation systems and FLIPR® readers. Their flat-bottom wells ensure consistent optical measurements, while low flange or high base designs accommodate robotic handling and barcoding.Product Highlights:Surface Treatment: NBS™ (Nonbinding Surface) – polyethylene oxide-like hydrophilic coatingMaterial: Crystal-grade polystyreneColor: Black (low autofluorescence)Well Bottom: FlatSterility: NonsterileLid: Not includedPackaging: 10 plates per bag; 50 plates per casePlate Format Options:Standard 384-well (Product No. 3575)Well Volume: 112 µLRecommended Working Volume: 20–80 µLLow flange designLow Volume 384-well (Product No. 3820)Well Volume: 50 µLRecommended Working Volume: 5–40 µLRound well design with 2.8 mm offset from plate bottomHigh base plate for automation and barcodingValidated by Molecular Devices for FLIPR® compatibilityKey Features:NBS™ surface minimizes protein and nucleic acid bindingBlack walls reduce background noise and improve assay precisionFlat-bottom wells support reliable optical readingsCompatible with high-throughput automation systemsIdeal for miniaturized homogeneous fluorescence assays
