Intrinsic fluorescence as property? #7
Comments
That's surprising! Are they clear bottom plates, which one could use in a plate reader, or not? If not, then it probably doesn't actually matter... |
They are clear bottom, but V-bottom. I guess you could do a bottom-read fluorescence, but would be a bit weird & probably quite sensitive to the exact distance of the fiber optic probe. Top-reading fluorescence could use these plates though. Should be clear: These the middle plate is a different product from the other two, despite their similarity of labeling. |
@photocyte, this is also new to me, |
I agree, made a milestone for 2.0 & assigned this issue to it. |
I expect the current set of properties for labware (specifically microplates), includes things like color, if it is opaque or translucent, etc.
But I came across an unexpected additional property. Intrinsic fluorescence. Check out the middle Nunc Brand (Thermo Fisher) plate in the below photo. It clearly fluoresces a violet / blue under UV light (and sunlight, I first noticed it in front of a window), whereas the other plates don't show that fluorescence. They are all polypropylene plates, nominally with the exact same "specifications"
