High Content Screening (HCS) Microplates | Corning

High Performance Plates for Cell-based Assays

Corning has been setting the standard for excellence in life sciences labware for over 85 years. We continue to be an industry leader focused on enhancing your assay process and performance with our cell culture products, microplates, and reagents. All Corning microplates adhere to strict manufacturing standards, process controls, and compliance testing to support consistent, reproducible performance.

Corning offers a variety of specialized microplates with a number of clear bottom substrate options to meet all your microscopy and high content imaging needs.

They are organized into 3 groups:

• For 2X - 10X: Polystyrene microplates for standard microscopy and low magnification imaging
• For 10X - 32X: 384-well and half-area 96-well high content standard base microplates in glass and Cyclic Olefin Copolymer (COC) for increased chemical resistance and high resolution microscopy
• For 40X and over: 384-well and half-area 96-well high content low bottom elevation microplates in COC for use with high content imagers utilizing high magnification objectives with low numerical aperture immersion lenses

All COC and glass 384-well microplates feature a round well geometry that reduces reagent loss due to “wicking” and prevents cells from “clumping” in the corners.

Corning glass bottom and cyclic olefin copolymer (COC) film bottom high content screening microplates deliver high optical quality for cell-based assays. With an unprecedented flatness (whole plate and intra-well), these microplates are ideal for high resolution cellular imaging applications.
