No Binding Capacity Plates

No Binding Capacity Plates are specialized microplates designed to have minimal to no affinity for biomolecules. These plates are engineered to reduce or eliminate non-specific binding interactions, making them ideal for applications where it is crucial to minimize background noise and ensure accurate results. They are commonly used in assays where non-specific interactions could skew data, such as in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) or other quantitative biochemical assays.

• Material Composition:
  • Typically constructed from high-quality plastics such as polystyrene or polypropylene.
  • The surface is treated or coated with specific chemicals to prevent or minimize binding of proteins, nucleic acids, and other biomolecules.
• Surface Treatment:
  • The plates are treated with a proprietary coating or surface modification process designed to reduce or eliminate non-specific binding.
  • This treatment ensures a low or negligible background level, enhancing the accuracy and reliability of assay results.
• Binding Characteristics:
  • Minimal Non-Specific Binding: The surface treatment or coating effectively minimizes interactions with biomolecules, reducing background noise and improving signal-to-noise ratios.
  • High Reproducibility: Provides consistent performance across wells and experiments, which is crucial for reproducible results in quantitative assays.
• Plate Formats:
  • Available in standard formats, such as 96-well and 384-well plates, to accommodate various assay scales.
  • Typically flat-bottom designs are used, which are compatible with optical detection methods such as colorimetric, fluorescent, and chemiluminescent assays.
• Applications:
  • Quantitative Assays: Ideal for ELISA, Western blotting, and other assays where precise measurement of specific interactions is required without interference from non-specific binding.
  • Biochemical Studies: Useful in experiments that require accurate quantification of target molecules, such as enzyme kinetics and ligand-receptor binding studies.
  • High-Throughput Screening: Suitable for applications in drug discovery and other high-throughput settings where background noise needs to be minimized to ensure reliable data.
• Compatibility:
  • Compatible with a variety of detection systems, including colorimetric (e.g., HRP/TMB), fluorescent, and luminescent assays.
  • Suitable for use with standard laboratory equipment, including microplate readers, automated liquid handling systems, and plate washers.
• Well Volume:
  • Designed to handle typical assay volumes, usually ranging from 50 µL to 300 µL per well, depending on the specific plate format and experimental requirements.
  • Ensures uniform well-to-well volume, which is essential for obtaining consistent and reproducible results.
