ABSTRACT:
A microplate and a method for manufacturing microplates. The microplate is designed to reduce optical cross-talk during the assaying of samples. The microplate includes a plurality of wells having light permeable sidewalls, a layer of light permeable material forming a bottom of the wells, and ribs of light impermeable material extending through the layer of light permeable material. The method includes steps of inserting a plate of light permeable material into a mold cavity that includes sections shaped to form the sidewalls of the plurality of wells, injecting molten light impermeable material into the mold cavity, and cooling the light impermeable material to form the microplate with the light impermeable material forming the sidewalls of each of the plurality of wells and the plate of light permeable material forming the bottom wall of each of the plurality of wells.
