1.5 Glossary
Deepwell plate Plate with 48, 96 or 384 wells with a larger volume than
microplates. Suitable for the preparation, mixing,
centrifuging, transporting and storing of solid and liquid
samples.
Incubate Includes: cultivation of cell and bacterial cultures under
controlled ambient conditions.
Micro test plate Plates with 24, 48, 96 or 384 wells for the preparation,
mixing, centrifuging, transporting and storing of solid
and liquid samples.
Mixing load All samples to be mixed and the tubes or plates in which
the samples are located.
Pellet Compressed material. Is, for example, created via the
centrifugation of a suspension.
Resuspending Dissolve the pellet by vortexing in a liquid. The material
is distributed in the liquid. The result is a suspension.
Semi-skirted PCR
plate
PCR plate with surrounding half-edge.
Skirted PCR plate PCR plate with a surrounding edge.
Unskirted PCR plate PCR plate without a surrounding edge.
Vortexing Strong whirling or blending by manually pressing a tube
onto the vortex mat.
Well Cavity. Microplate, PCR plate or Deepwell plate tube.
