We have transported microbatch plates (from Stevenage to DLS) without any disruptions:
- Eliminate Air Bubbles: Top up each well completely with oil to the absolute maximum depth. This prevents air pockets and shifting the droplets during transit. - Seal the Plates Tightly: Press the lid down firmly and seal the entire perimeter with Parafilm. This keeps the lid rigid and prevents any oil leaks. - Cushion for Transit: Keep the plates perfectly flat inside a toolbox well-cushioned with plenty of tissues , and they will arrive completely intact. Also you can use Douglas Vapor Batch Plate https://www.douglas.co.uk/vb , it is safer Thanks Kannan On Thu, 9 Jul 2026 at 06:49, Dr. Gugan K < [email protected]> wrote: > Transporting Microbatch plates preloaded with oil > > We have got crystals in 72 well Terasaki plates (micro batch > crystallisation) and want to transport it through train for 300kms for XRD. > How do we efficiently transport the plates without disrupting the crystals > in it ?
