What is the well depth and maximum volume capacity of a MultiScreen plate? | The well depth of a 96 well MultiScreen plate is 1.245 cm. The well depth for a 384 well MultiScreen plate is 1.2 cm. The maximum working volume of a 96 well plate is 300 ul. The maximum working volume for a 384 well plate is 100 ul. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Assay Terminology commonly used with reference to MultiScreen-MIC plates | Chemotaxis: Directed movement of cells in response to a concentration gradient. Migration: Random movement of cells. Invasion: The movement of cells across a barrier (e.g. extracellular matrix) in response to a concentration gradient. Transmigration: The movement of cells across another cell barrier in response to a concentration gradient. Angiogenesis: Tubule formation exhibited by HUVEC (Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells) in response to cell stimulating factors. Co-culture: When you have more than one cell type in your assay it is called co-culture. These assays are typically run to assess cell-cell interactions and factors secreted by one cell influencing the behavior of the other cell. |

What is the MultiScreenTM-MIC plate? | It is a 96 well sterile single use device that allows you to perform a variety of assays such as migration, invasion, chemotaxis, angiogenesis, transendothelial migration and co-culture type of assays. It has a filter plate* with 96 wells fitted with membrane. These wells serve as upper wells in your assay. It has a 96 well tear drop receiver plate. These wells serve as the lower wells in your assay. The membrane is the separation component between the two wells. These devices are available in a variety of pore sizes (3, 5 and 8 mm pore sizes available as cataloged products. 1, 2 and 12 mm pore sizes available by special order) in an uncoated format. The plates are available in packs of 10 with each device individually wrapped in a blister pack to ensure sterility. The plates are tissue culture treated (using a proprietary methodology) to support use with suspension and adherent cells. *There is no underdrain on these filter plates, as the application does not require use of vacuum. |

What type of assays can I perform on the MultiScreen-MIC plates? | he MultiScreenTM-MIC plates can be used for a variety of assays such as migration, invasion, chemotaxis, angiogenesis, transendothelial migration and co-culture type of assays. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
What type of screening can I perform with the MultiScreenTM-MIC plates? | Some examples of screening that can be done on MIC plates are compound library screening, protein library screening or antibody library screening. You can measure the effect of the compound, protein or antibodies on cell behavior in functional assays such as migration, invasion, chemotaxis, angiogenesis, transendothelial migration and co-culture type of assays. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
What pore size should I select when using the MultiScreenTM-MIC plate for my assay? | Pore size determination depends totally on your cell type. A quick literature search will enable you to decide the best pore size for the particular cells you are using. The following chart illustrates pore size choice for cell lines used in our laboratory and by some of our customers for these assays.
