Over the last couple of decades, microplate technologies have been increasingly adopted in several applications in biotechnology research. It is opined by researchers that these equipment play a vital role in maintenance of efficient and precise data results, and research performance. The nature of analytical tests and assays have considerably evolved over the years and the trend of volume miniaturization for performing drug screening is being observed in the market that are driving design modifications in microplates. Large number of microplates based on type, color, well design, material etc. are required for accommodating the dynamic demands from researchers. Among the various initiatives, manufacturers are striving to reduce the requirement of reagents and chemicals for research without compromising the process quality and outcomes. 

Microplates and microplate instrumentation are a critical group of devices used in cell culture and other forms of research. Initially used only in laboratory settings for research purposes, these devices have also witnessed growing adoption in the field of disease diagnostics. Thus creating their presence in diagnostic laboratories and hospitals. Microplates are thus used for understanding the drug discovery and development, and understanding the cellular reactions in any form of research. Microplates are therefore essential in testing methods and are also applied in manufacturing processes. Due to their ability to analyze multiple samples in one go, the demand for microplates is consistently growing in research settings.

"Polystyrene to remain the most preferred base material for microplates"

Polystyrene is the most commonly used material for microplates. Its highly transparent resin is appropriately suited for microscopic imaging and optical measurement therefore becoming applicable in several laboratory applications. Due to the chemical properties, polystyrene if hydrophobic and its nature can be altered with a variety of physical surface treatments, thus increasing its range of application. This enables polystyrene to become the perfect base material for manufacturing of microplates in cell culture, immunology and screening purposes.  Cycloolefin is also a commonly used material in microplates. This material has low level autofluorescence with good transparency in low UV wavelengths. This enables cycloolefin microplates eligible for use in UV spectroscopy of various ranges.

"High demand for microplate instrumentation to come for drug discovery and development"

Each year the number of new molecular entities is consistently growing. The overall pharmaceutical industry is not witnessing prominent returns at it once did for lesser number of blockbuster drugs. This implies that the industry is refocusing on smaller pockets of the market and tapping smaller yet relevant opportunities to deliver potential benefits to select group of patients. This has therefore given a clearer and more prominent need for manufacturers to take correct and swift decisions on pipeline projects and also explore more efficient methods of discovering new targets. New technologies have vital value as they enable and allow simpler assay development and further removal of non-relevant or specific compounds. While new technologies are needed for a wide range of new drugs to be developed, a major part of identification of such molecules and candidates is performed with microplate readers. Thus, improvements in the field of microplate instrumentation are vital for the progress of pharmaceuticals industry.

"Imperative position of cell culture to make the application the most dominant segment"

Cell culture forms a basic and conventional method of research for identification of disease targets, drug assessment, and characterization of genes. Although this process is complex in nature, it is highly accessible and economical than in vivo methods of research, and also have lesser ethical implications. Cell culture can be performed in high volumes with large bioreactors and can also be accomplished at small scales with using multiwell plates. Cell culture models using microplates are eboming increasingly popular as these allow investigation of a multitude of dynamic variables, thus enabling higher ecperiment output while reducing time and expenses. The novel high throughput microplates also enable convenient 3D cell culture annnd organotypic cell culture. In terms of well shape, F-bottom microplates are the most preferred type for conventional 2D adherent cell culture, particularly when spectrophotometric reading or imaging of the culture are required.
