A 24-well microplate, with a working volume of 10ml / well, has been developed by Porvair Sciences Ltd. for large scale, high yield growth of yeast.

Produced under class 10,000 clean room conditions from virgin polypropylene, the new 24-well plate contains no contaminants that may leach out and affect yeast growth.  The wells of the high volume plate are rectangular in shape with a 'v' bottom to facilitate easy yeast concentration and recovery.

Each pack consists of Porvair Sciences high volume, 24-well plates is secured within a virgin polymer bag.  The pack is then passed through an irradiation procedure to sterilise the plates. Every batch of Porvair Sciences' sterile high volume plates is rigorously tested to validate their contamination-free status ensuring reproducibility and maintaining customer confidence in the yeast, bacteria or cells you grow.

Porvair high volume microplates are precisely manufactured to ANSI/SBS-1 (2004) Footprint Dimensions* making them fully compatible with automated liquid handling systems and other robotic sample processing equipment.

Porvair Sciences Ltd has specialised in the manufacture of microplates since its formation in 1992. Via its global distributor network, Porvair Sciences serves Life Sciences, Biotechnology, R&D and Molecular Biology with microplate solutions for all applications, from sample preparation to high throughput screening.  Porvair Sciences is a subsidiary of Porvair plc, a world leader in microporous materials.
