# Custom Microplate & Device Development (OEM)

Standard microplates often do not fully satisfy the precise requirements of a research or diagnostic application. Biomat develops **custom and OEM microplates and diagnostic devices**, including variations in dimensions, well shapes, surface coatings and formats.

Over 30 years of experience in custom plate design and surface modification. Manufactured under ISO-certified standards, in Italy.

Biomat is a **manufacturer, not a distributor**: moulding, coating and engineering are in-house. For an IVD kit manufacturer this means one interlocutor from design to packaged product, and no dependency on a third-party coater.

## Who this is for

IVD kit manufacturers, reagent companies, diagnostic developers and OEM partners who need a surface, a format or a device that is not available from catalogue, or who need to qualify a European manufacturing partner.

## Customisation process

1. **Defining requirements** — assessment of application goals and challenges: well geometries, surface coatings, device design.
2. **Design & prototyping** — detailed designs and 3D prototypes to visualise dimensions and structure before production, incorporating customer feedback.
3. **Material & surface selection** — a wide range of surface treatments (tissue culture, immunoassay, specialised coatings) optimised per application.
4. **Continuous collaboration & testing** — constant communication and rigorous testing against agreed specifications.
5. **Production & delivery** — full production under ISO-certified standards, managed end to end.

## What can be customised

- Well geometry and plate dimensions
- Surface chemistry: any of the 24+ Biomat coatings, or a bespoke coating developed for the application
- Formats: breakable strip, strip, solid; 96-well and other formats; PCR strip tubes and PCR plates
- Colours: clear, white, black; customisable upper rim colours
- Optional barcoding and bespoke packaging (vacuum-sealed, blister)
- Blocking: standard proteic blocking (ELISA Blocking) or non-proteic blocking (BlockerWell)

## Why Biomat for custom and OEM

- **Precision:** exact dimensions, materials and surface treatments for accurate assay results.
- **Surface-technology expertise:** maximises binding efficiency and assay performance.
- **ISO-certified quality:** manufactured under stringent controls for reliability and repeatability.
- **Direct access to the technical team:** no distributor layer between customer and R&D.
- **Sustainability:** eco-friendly manufacturing practices, facilities on 100% renewable energy.

## Applications for custom products

ELISA microarray spotting and protein microarray blotting (pin/inkjet/sonic printing for multiplex biomarker panels, autoantibody profiling, cytokine arrays, low-volume serology); molecular diagnostics; cell culture assays; drug discovery and compound screening; in vitro diagnostics (IVD); genomics and proteomics (DNA/RNA binding, protein interaction); biomarker research (oncology, cardiovascular, precision medicine); cell-based assays (cytotoxicity, imaging, signalling); high-throughput screening (HTS); tissue engineering and regenerative medicine; environmental testing; food and beverage safety testing.
