Microtiter Plates
• Microtiter plate must be 96-well, not to exceed 1” (2.54cm) in height, including heater
block.
• Microtiter plate must be compatible with the microtiter heater block temperature when the
heater block is in use.
• All microtiter plates have standard width (85.5mm) and length (127.9 mm). Depth varies
depending on the type of well. Maximum allowable depth is 1” (2.54cm). Plates must have
minimum 0.06” (1.5mm) lip height, standard distance from well center to well center (9mm)
and standard distance from A1 center to plate center in both length and width. To be
compatible in size with the microtiter heater block, the plate must fit into the heater block so
that the top is flush with the heater block.
Microspheres
• Distinguishes 1 to 50 unique MagPlex microspheres in a single sample
• Misclassification Rate ≤ 2%
• Classification Rate ≥ 80%
• Detects and distinguishes surface reporter fluorescence emissions at 590 nm +/- 24 nm on
the surface of 1 to 50 unique MagPlex microsphere in a single sample
• Soluble background fluorescence emission at 590 nm +/- 24 nm automatically subtracted
from fluorescence intensity values
