- test plate dimensions for readers
- opto-mechanical activation of the growth area for optimum cell adhesion
- lid with venting system ensures controlled gas exchange and low evaporation
- sloped edge ensures correct lid placement in one position only
- yellow marking area on lid and plate ensure correct lid orientation: yellow on yellow – match!
- ridged grip area prevents accidental lid removal
- clear alphanumerical labelling between the wells for easy microscopy orientation
- easy to read black alpha-numerics on the side
- growth area restricted to the spherical zone
- perfectly flat growth surface
- safe stacking of all TPP plate sizes (6, 12, 24, 48 and 96-well)
- air vents in the plate base prevent condensation and ensure air flow between stacked plates
Tissue Culture Test Plates

- manufactured meeting the standards ANSI/SLAS 1-2004 through ANSI/SLAS 4-2004
- 2 well geometries available: F-base and U-base
ANSI/SLAS Microplate Standards
SLAS sets standards for microplate development through its SLAS Microplate Standards Advisory Committee, which is responsible for the maintenance of the five standards below. As directed by American National Standards Institute (ANSI), the committee is comprised of a balanced representation of manufacturers of microplates, manufacturers of instruments that utilize microplates, industrial and academic users of microplates and those with a general interest but do not fit in the previous categories.
These five standards were reaffirmed by the committee in compliance with the ANSI process and requirements, June 2017, and will be reaffirmed in early 2021.
ANSI SLAS 1-2004 (R2012): Footprint Dimensions
last updated January 9, 2004
ANSI SLAS 2-2004 (R2012): Height Dimensions
last updated January 9, 2004
ANSI SLAS 3-2004 (R2012): Bottom Outside Flange Dimensions
last updated January 9, 2004
ANSI SLAS 4-2004 (R2012): Well Positions
last updated January 9, 2004
ANSI SLAS 6-2012: Well Bottom Elevation (Either singularly, or as a whole)
last updated April 09, 2009
Note that in dire circumstances where spacing is a major issue, the only other verbiage is allowed: Meets the Standards ANSI/SLAS 1-2004 through ANSI/SLAS 4-2004.
Good to know!
F-base
- excellent optical characteristics
- suitable for precise optical measurements the measuring light is not distracted by the geometry - as well as microscopy applications (bottom reading)
- growth area 0.342 cm2
![]() |
U-base
- no rims well suited for pipetting
- used for agglutination tests and „+/-„ evaluations
- growth area: 0.965 cm2
