Multiwell Plate Storage Rack – Storage of Multiwell Plates for Easy Access.

Multiwell plates are very commonly used in the lab. They range from 6, 12, 24, 48, 96, 384, 1536 etc. They are used for cell culture, molecular biology experiments, and protein chemistry experiments. The multiwell plates used for cell culture have a special hydrophilic coating, this allows for easy attachment of the cells to the plastic surface. Almost all the multi well plates are designed with the same footprint, commonly known as SBS foot print or dimensions. The reason for this standardization is because all different types of plates, irrespective of the manufacturer will fit all the instruments, and other hardware used in the laboratories.

Some of the ways the multiwell plates are used is by adding reagents or cells into each well, and stack them on top of each other for convenience and for saving space. One of the problem associated with the stacking is that if you want to get a plate from the middle of the stack, usually you will have to disturb, move the other plates on top of it. This may cause unintended consequences such as dropping the other plates by accident, or simply disturbing the plates unnecessarily. For some of the experiments, cells after seeding into the well cannot be or should not be disturbed. This may effect their attachment, or growth dynamics.

That is why Pioneer Scientific designed the Multiwell Plate Tower. These are functional colorfully designed plastic storage towers for either 6 multi well plates or 12 multiwell plates. These multiwell plate storage towers can store the plates in separate slots for easy access without disturbing the other plates. Ideal to store reagent plates such as ELISA plates in incubators, refrigerators, or lab bench. These are designed by scientists for scientists, and incorporated beautiful design and style along with vibrant color. Both 6 Multiwell Plate Storage Rack, and 12 Multiwell Plate Storage Rack are extremely functional for carrying the plates from lab to lab or station to station, such as microscope rooms, cold rooms, imaging labs etc. The beautiful style and vibrant colors will add life to the lab environment. One can also access the plates at random with ease.
