Filter Plate Quick Selection Guide
The unique nature of protein science results in a variety of device requirements for each application type. Pall understands this need and has a portfolio of 96- and 384-well filter plates that can be optimized for your assay. Our portfolio includes a selection of single- and multi-layer membranes, plate colors, well volumes, and outlet tips. Pall’s filter plate product line includes two platforms that address different application needs:
- AcroPrep filter plates are engineered with special outlet tips and splash guards, and can be used for both filtrate- and retentate-based applications. Membranes are individually cut, placed and sealed in the wells using a proprietary sealing process that ensures seal integrity. A distinctive valve technology eliminates sample leaking.
- AcroWell filter plates are designed to support retentate and hybridization-based binding applications. These plates are constructed of two membrane layers; the bottom layer protects the upstream functional membrane and acts as a barrier to passive flow. Using a plate optimized for your application will reduce sample loss, make automation easy, and add consistency and reliability throughout your entire process.
Color Selection
Detection results can be optimized by selecting the proper plate color. Use the following as guidelines for easy selection:
- Natural (semi-opaque): fluorescence, TRF
- White (opaque): radioactivity, chemiluminescence
- Black (opaque): lowest background for fluorescence, TRF
