High Content Analysis of Biochemical and Cellular Assays in SensoPlate<br />

Plus Glass Bottom Microplates<br />

Integrated and automated workstations do set new standards for ease of use and sophisticated fluorescence techniques. For various<br />

applications in drug discovery including confocal single molecule detection, high performance microplates are mandatory, when looking<br />

for superior data quality. To meet this need Greiner Bio-One designed in cooperation with evotec technologies new microplates for High<br />

Content Screening applications. The CellCarrier microplates are tissue culture treated polystyrene film bottom microplates adapted to<br />

the needs of cellular assays. The SensoPlate Plus microplates are novel glass bottom microplates especially recommended for use in<br />

fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) and related confocal methods (FCS+plus). The optimized microplate geometry of the Cell<br />

Carrier and the SensoPlate Plus permits complete utilization of all wells even for measurements with immersion objectives. We tested<br />

the SensoPlate Plus microplates in different biochemical and cellular assays. Due to the high optical quality of the glass bottom and the<br />

minimal bending of less than 100 µm SensoPlate Plus shows homogenous readouts with CV’s below 2.5, high count rates and high Z’<br />

values. Therefore SensoPlate Plus is particularly suitable for biochemical and non-adherent cell assays. Cell growth of adherent cells on<br />

glass bottom microplates is more difficult to assess. The performance of SensoPlatePlus, different coatings and polystyrene microplates<br />

in cell based assays will be discussed.<br />
