Meshwell plates

InactiveUS20050112030A1Rapid and highly reproducible high-throughput processingDrain fastAnalysis using chemical indicatorsLaboratory glasswaresTissue sampleEngineering
A versatile mesh-bottom Meshwell plate enables simultaneous rapid and highly reproducible high-throughput processing of small tissue samples or organisms. In an embodiment, the Meshwell plate consists of 96 meshwells and is particularly useful in assaying zebrafish embryos. The bottom tips of standard 96-well PCR plates are removed and replaced by a mesh with openings of about 75-300 μm, preferably 150 μm, in size. The Meshwell plate is optimized to allow fast draining of solutions and to prevent “wicking” of solution between wells. Quick and clean changes of solution can be done either by hand or a robot. With the Meshwell plate, waste of reagent solution and handling hazards, which may cause damage to and / or loss of samples, are substantially minimized and / or essentially eliminated. The Meshwell plate can be easily customized according to number of meshwells desired and can be economically mass-produced.
