To make sure these reservoirs arrive sterile, they've been irradiated, individually bagged, and marked with a lot number. Use them to hold reagents and samples for easy access during pipetting. A V-shaped bottom helps you collect samples as your liquid starts to run low. All have molded graduation marks, so you can gauge how much liquid is inside. There’s a pour spout on each corner for discarding excess liquid. These reservoirs cannot be autoclaved or reused.

Hold reagents and samples for easy access during pipetting. These reservoirs have an angled bottom, so you can collect samples even as your liquid starts to run low.

Rectangular reservoirs have molded graduation marks to see how much liquid is inside. There’s a pour spout on each corner to discard excess liquid.

V-shape reservoirs have a single large reservoir on one side and 8- and 12-chamber reservoirs on the other. Useful for multi-channel pipettors, the smaller chambers reduce the risk of waste. They’re often used to hold different reagents or ratios and for serial dilutions. Made of polypropylene, they can be autoclaved for reuse.

Each well on these plates acts as a mini test tube, allowing you to collect, mix, and store up to 96 individual samples within a single container. Keep track of the location of each of your samples using the labeled grid.

Plates with round wells are better for sample mixing than plates with square wells. Those with U-bottoms facilitate mixing even further. Those with V-bottoms make it easy to retrieve the final drops of a sample, reducing waste.

Add a cover to your plate to protect samples during processing and storage. Covers also make plates stackable. Tight-fitting covers have grooves that protect each well. They prevent evaporation and contamination better than standard covers.
