Dear Jacob, I second the CompactClover plates suggested, either in 96-well (1 drop per well) or 24-well with four drops per well format. Easy to set up by hand, nice viewing characteristics, clear flat bottom of the drop. I think the polarisation is also ok, although I personally tend to t

Dear Crystallogrpahers, what are the best 24-well sitting drop plates on the market? I have used the standard pilar-type ones from Hampton, but I would like to have the ability to set up a few drops per well, and also those plates have a lot of background polarization. Also, the reason I am lo
