NBS Scientific is thrilled to announce the launch of the latest innovation in our portfolio from our latest brand, the Glass Tubes by Hirschmann. Designed to meet the highest standards of efficiency, purity, and compatibility, these microplate glass tubes are engineered for the future of high-throughput screening and miniaturized bioassays. The Glass Tubes are available in various formats, 1536, 384, and 99-well, to meet your laboratory needs.

Maximum efficiency meets minimal volume

At the core of this innovation by Hirschmann, the Glass Tubes are designed for laboratories that demand precision in extremely high-density workflows. The wells contain a 0.05mL glass insert, delivering uncompromising purity and chemical inertness, even at micro volumes.

Whether you are conducting pharmaceutical screening, molecular biology experiments, or lead optimization assays, the glass tubes provide the consistency and reliability that modern labs require.

Why choose for the Hirschmann Glass Tubes ?

  • Ultra-High-Density, Micro-Volume Format
    Maximize data output while minimizing reagent use. With 1536 individual glass inserts, you can screen thousands of compounds efficiently on a single plate.
  • Chemically inert, biologically neutral
    Glass inserts provide a non-reactive, non-binding surface, ideal for enzymatic, cellular, and molecular assays that demand low background interference and high sensitivity.
  • Built for automation
    The polypropylene (PP) frame is lightweight, robust, and fully compatible with automated platforms. This makes the plates perfect for integration into robotic systems, liquid handlers, and plate readers.
  • Reliable thermal distribution
    Even with ultra-high well density, the plate design ensures uniform thermal properties, supporting sensitive workflows like PCR and compound profiling.

Available formats for every workflow

The Hirschmann Glass Tubes offer a variety of formats to suit your research needs.

Hirschmann offers:

  • 1536-well: For ultra-high-throughput screening and advanced biochemical applications
  • 384-well & 96-well: For flexible scaling across a range of lab needs

All formats are supplied with fixed glass inserts and a clear, protective lid to ensure sample integrity from storage to analysis.

The Hirschmann Glass Tubes are ideal for:

  1. High-throughput screening (uHTS)
  2. Miniaturized enzymatic & cellular assays
  3. Drug discovery and lead optimization
  4. Molecular biology & biochemical workflows
