Product details
High quality glass substrate
The ultra flat, glass slide is manufactured from low auto-fluorescent borosilicate glass with the dimensions 75.6 mm x 25.0 mm x 1 mm. The uniform flatness of the borosilicate glass ensures highly reproducible contact printing and scanning across the wells. The glass slides are partitioned into 48 wells by an ultra-hydrophobic patterning layer. Each well is 3.5 x 3.5 mm with 9 mm center-to-center spacing, in a 4 x 12 format (identified as A–D and1- 12). The dimensions and locations of the wells are fully compatible with standard microarray printing parameters. There is a region of unpatterned glass on the right hand side for the attachment of an optional barcode label.
