ChemBridge offers a wide range of sample packaging options so that samples can be delivered in a format meeting each customer's specific requirements. Below is general information on compound amounts, sample layout, DMSO solutions, standard materials available for sample packaging and packaging in custom materials. Please contact ChemBridge Sales for further details.

Compound Amounts
  • Custom Selections: For custom/cherry-picked compound selections we can provide compounds in micromole (umol) equivalent amounts or milligram (mg) amounts
  • Pre-plated Libraries: Compounds are provided in micromole (umol) amounts as 10mM DMSO solutions or as dry film
DMSO Solutions

ChemBridge has extensive experience shipping libraries as frozen DMSO solutions and routinely ships frozen DMSO solutions worldwide. For more details on how we manage frozen DMSO shipments, please contact ChemBridge Sales.

Sample Layout

Custom Selections

  • For custom/cherry-picked compound selections ChemBridge can plate samples according to your preferred layout

Pre-plated Libraries

  • 384-well plates: 320 compounds per plate in columns 3 to 22 with columns 1, 2 and 23, 24 DMSO-only (no compound) or empty (no DMSO)
  • 96-well plates: 80 compounds per plate in columns 2 to 11 with columns 1 and 12 DMSO-only (no compound) or empty (no DMSO)
Custom Packaging

In addition to plating in the standard materials listed below, ChemBridge routinely packages orders of all sizes in customer-provided and customer-specified materials, including acoustic compatible plates and 2D barcoded materials. Please contact ChemBridge Sales to discuss your requirements.

  • 96-well Corning 2ml capacity, deep well monoblock, square well, v-bottom, polypropylene plates (Corning catalog# 3961) for DMSO volumes up to 2ml; sealed with heat seals or 96-cap mats

Monoblock Plate Labels

  • Monoblock plates are labeled on the south side (long side parallel to the last row of the plate) with chemical and freeze/thaw resistant labels. If preferred, plates can be labeled on a different side or with identical barcode labels on 2 sides.
  • Labels are printed with a barcode (Code 93) and human readable text. ChemBridge can use default values for the labels or can use a range of customer-specified values.

Monoblock Plate Seals

Aluminum heat seals are used as the standard closure for 384-well and 96-well monoblock plates; please inquire about 96-cap mat options. Note: The Ritter 2ml plate can only be sealed with a 96-cap mat.

Standard 96-well Format Tube Rack Options
  • 96-well format tube racks with 1.1ml polypropylene, round bottom tubes (National Scientific Supply); tubes can be sealed with a 96-cap mat or 8-cap strips
  • Matrix 96-well format tube racks with 2D barcoded tubes are also available; please contact ChemBridge Sales for more details

Tube Rack Labels

  • Tube racks are labeled on the south side (long side parallel to Row H) with chemical and freeze/thaw resistant labels. If preferred, tube racks can be labeled on a different side or with identical barcode labels on 2 sides.
  • 2D barcoded tubes do not receive a ChemBridge barcode unless requested; for National Scientific Supply tube racks, tubes are individually labeled with a vertically oriented label (chemical and freeze/thaw resistant) with barcode (Code 93) and human readable text.
