Half area black plate

Manufactured by Corning

The Half-area black plate is a laboratory equipment item designed to provide a consistent dark surface for various scientific experiments and applications. It serves as a neutral background for visual and photographic observations, helping to enhance contrast and visibility. The product's core function is to offer a standardized, predictable dark surface for use in laboratory settings.

Fluorescence Polarization Assay for MSUT2

A follow-up FP assay was performed in a half-area black plate (Corning, Corning, New York, 3686). Fifty microliters of 125 nM MSUT2 and 10 nM FAM-RNA (ordered from IDT) in PBS (137 mM NaCl, 2.7 mM KCl, 10 mM Na2HPO4, and 1.8 mM KH2PO4) was transferred using an Integra (Hudson, NH) Viaflo with a 96/50 μL head. Two microliters of compound was transferred for a final concentration of 10 μM. Plates were incubated for 20 min at room temperature away from light and read using a Cytation 5 (BioTek, Winooski, VT) with a preconfigured green polarization filter cube (Biotek, 8040561) at excitation 485/20 and emission 528/20, a dichroic mirror at 510 nm, and a read height of 10 mm. FP was calculated by first subtracting the background from a buffer-only control well and then using the equation P=FFF+F to determine polarization (P).

Fluorescent Protein Synthesis Quantification

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The fluorescence
intensity of the synthesized fluorescent proteins was measured by
the multiwell plate fluorometer (Synergy HTX, BioTek, Winooski, VT).
Five microliters of the cell-free synthesized fluorescent protein
and 45 μL of Milli-Q water were mixed in a 96-well half-area
black plate (Corning Incorporated, Corning, NY). The plate was mixed
in the plated reader orbitally at a medium speed for 15 s and read
at a height of 1.5 mm with a gain of 48. The excitation and emission
spectra are 485 and 528 nm, respectively. The cell-free synthesized
protein was visualized by Coomassie blue staining after protein gel
electrophoresis using precasted 4–12% bis–tris gradient
gel (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA) (Figure S6).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
