Improved sensitivity in screening assays

Millipore has announced the latest addition to the MultiScreen family of filter plates, the MultiScreenHTS+ for radiometric kinase and GPCR assays

The MultiScreenHTS+ filter plate has a mesh backing to create uniformly flowing wells to improve washing efficiency.

The new plate design reduces overall non-specific binding and reduces variability in both background and signal intensities.

The filter plates allow for higher throughput, greater assay sensitivity and detection flexibility.

Validation testing showed a three-fold decrease in well-to-well variability and improved signal-to-noise ratio over traditional filter plates.

Established in 1954 as a high performance filtration products and services company, Millipore has grown into a partner for life science customers through R+D investment, organic growth and acquisitions.

Companies acquired include Chemicon, Upstate, Linco and NovAseptic.

The integrated Millipore offers more innovative technologies and stronger application support to streamline progress and give more confidence in results, it says.
