Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. has released its new Thermo Scientific immunoassay plate guide. This interactive online guide provides a detailed resource for users looking to match the right plate to each assay. With information on passive binding surfaces for biomacromolecules, covalent coupling surfaces for smaller biomolecules and affinity capture surfaces for affinity-tagged biomolecules, you can be confident that you are using the best plate for each application.
Immunoassay techniques are extremely sensitive, making it pivotal that you select the appropriate surface with optimized conditions. The portfolio of Thermo Scientific Nunc plates provides a broad range of surfaces and formats to optimize your assay.

MicroplatesMicroplates are multi-well plates used to increase the throughput of biological investigations. The number of wells microplates contain can range from 6 to 3243 wells, with the 96-well format being the most commonly used. Microplates can come tailored for a range of applications including cell culture, PCR, filtration, storage, non-binding surface, protein crystallization, as well as pre-coated, deep well and normal Standard microplates. Additionally, options for microplate colors include clear , black, white or black with clear bottom and white with clear bottom for absorbance microplate reader applications. Find the best microplates for your lab in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Assay AssemblyAssay Assembly is technique used in drug discovery to develop assays to test the cytotoxicity, genotoxicity, or other activities of a compound on a cell. Assay assembly requires chip assembly, a delivery system and a detection and analysis method. Beneficial features of assay kits or automated systems include high-throughput, high speed and sensitivity and low signal to noise ratio.Affinity-Tagged Biomolecules
