The centrifugation stability of any plate type is generally dependent on the plate itself,
centrifuge, rotor, rotor suspension gear, adapter, maximum rotation / maximum gravitation field,
operating temperature, centrifugation time, density of centrifuged liquid, organic solvent,
accumulated total weight and correct operation.

Product description
Instructions for use
The Eppendorf Deepwell Plates and Microplates are uncoated polypropylene disposables for
analyzing, preparing, mixing, centrifuging, transporting and storing of solid and liquid probes.
Eppendorf Microplates can be used in all conventional plate readers. Only trained technical staff
may use these consumables.
The Eppendorf Deepwell Plates and Microplates are characterized by a high chemical and
temperature resistance and can be sealed using suitable sealing options. The consumables fulfill
the ANSI/SBS standards for microplates.
This product can be used in development, research, routine and training laboratories in industry,
in chemistry, and in training and instruction. The applications extend over the areas of life
science, biotechnology, chemistry and clinical research, but are not limited to these areas.
