The present invention relates to an improved microplate which is constructed of at least one frame part and at least one bottom part, where the bottom part has a maximum thickness of 500 &#x3bc;m.

Multiwell microplate with transparent bottom having a thickness less than 200 micrometers

An arrangement for transporting microtitration plates in an automatic handling machine is disclosed comprising at least one linear-transport device on which a carriage, which has at least one place of deposit for a microtitration plate, is transported in a straight line, under automatic control, between two limit positions. A lifting device is included with vertically displaceable bolts by which the microtitration plates can be lifted off or deposited on the carriage. At least one rotary device is also included in which a rotary element which has at least one resting place for a microtitration plate can be moved, under automatic control, about a fixed rotation shaft. The rotary device is designed and arranged in such a way with respect to the linear-transport device that the resting place can be rotated between the place of deposit and the microtitration plate which has been lifted and is resting on the bolts, so that the surface centers of gravity of the place of deposit of the resting place and of the microtitration plate lie on a line which is parallel to the bolts.
