Luminex xPONENT 3.1 Rev 2 (IVD) - Manual (Page 16)

Reagents
Formulated reagents must be free of particulates other than xMAP beads. Do not dilute
xMAP calibrators or verifiers.
Plates
When using uncovered plates, use black opaque plates, if possible, to reduce
photobleaching.
For heated assays, use CoStar ® Thermowell ® 96-well, thin-wall polycarbonate, model P
plates.
For non-heated assays, select a 96-well plate with an overall height no greater than 0.75
inches (19 mm). Follow the xMAP based IVD kit instructions for use. See the Bead
Concentration section.
