CASE STUDY #1: MOULDING SOLUTIONS – MICROPLATES
SWISSCI offers novel plastic solutions. Our production areas are operated under clean-room conditions. SWISSCI is certified and works in accordance with the international GMP standard. Our products are CE marked.
Our microplate products fulfill the consistency, highest quality and finish demanded by the life science and diagnostic markets. These microplates are a cost-effective alternative to those currently available yet deliver the consistency and highest quality expected by the market.
The SWISSCI Microplate Product Range is available in a range of virgin polymers – proprietary Ultra Violet Transmissing (UVP), polystyrene, autoclavable polycarbonate and high-grade polypropylene. Only materials certified by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration, USA) are used for SWISSCI products.
Recycled materials, even from current production are strictly forbidden. Plates have a wide range of temperature and chemical resistance.

SWISSCI owns a state-of-the-art automated gluing line with autonomous cleanroom cell.
Below is the automat, the gluing unit, and our planarity test system.

Individual well labelling
Each well is alpha-numerically indexed for easy sample identification. Raised well rims that contribute to cross-contamination free results ensure uniform well-to-well performance by ensuring total sample integrity.
White and black Microplates for chemi-luminescence and fluorescence readings. Opaque white plates provide maximum reflection for luminescence measurements (for example in Luciferase Reporter Assays). Black microplates provide maximum sensitivities in fluorescence quantification (for example in Green Fluorescent Protein measurement)
Production and assembly in the clean room SWISSCI produces in a class 100,000 clean room: microplates are robotically detached from the injection moulding point. All products are subject to a 100% release performance test checking, in addition, the precision of each batch to ensure continuity of supply. Using this approach removes the risk of particle contamination, oxidative degradation, plastic discoloration, and product brittleness.

We own proprietary microplate types including Swiss quality moulds for our square-well bottomless plates
for gluing onto transparent bottoms on our proprietary gluing line.

CASE STUDY #3: IMAGING EXCELLENCE WITH FORMULATRIX AND SWISSCI 2-LENS UVXPO PLATES
SWISSCI and Formulatrix brought to market a new advancement in UV and cross-polarized imaging with the development of the UV Cross-Polarized (UVXPO) plate, which uses a specialized polymer mixture specifically designed to maximize UV and cross-polarized imaging.
Dr. Ellen Gualtieri of Formulatrix has tested the UVXPO plates with visible, cross-polarized, and UV light, and found a 75% reduction in plate auto-fluorescence when compared to other plates. This allows the user to more easily see protein crystals with weaker fluorescence because of the reduced background fluorescence.
The plate has been successful in trials at the University of Zurich in Switzerland using the Formulatrix Rock Imager, and is now available for demonstration at Formulatrix headquarters in Boston.
UVXPO plates can be purchased through Swissci and Swissci distributors. For further information please contact Swissci (sales@swissci.com) or Dr. Ellen Gualtieri, Imager Product Manager, Formulatrix (www.formulatrix.com).
