LIGHT-sensitive samples present a particular problem in the laboratory, as photon-induced degradation can occur almost anywhere.

Where the sun don’t shine: black microplates protect delicate samples from damaging light
Porvair says its high quality black microplates offer protection against light-induced sample degradation, even over long periods.
These black microplates are made from an ultra-pure grade of polypropylene, and are resistant to a wide range of common laboratory solvents.
They boast near zero leachates, and are supplied RNase and DNase free, for long-term sample integrity and use with even the most sensitive of biological samples
The black plates are manufactured to SLAS / ANSI dimensions for compatibility with the majority of lab automation equipment, and are available in variety of 96 well formats.
