Well plates

Well plates are flat, rectangular plastic trays used in laboratories to perform experiments involving multiple small-scale tests simultaneously. They contain an array of individual "wells," which are small, cup-like compartments where liquids or samples are placed. These plates are commonly employed in biological, chemical, and medical testing to analyze multiple samples at once efficiently. Each well functions as an independent reaction chamber, allowing scientists to conduct, observe, and compare numerous reactions under controlled conditions, making it a vital tool for high-throughput screening and diagnostics.
