====Well shape==== Notably, the shape and diameter of the well is not standardized, and has several proprietary implementations. This causes difficulties with accessory cross-compatibility such as with [[microplate cap mats]]. Wells within the microplate are available in different shapes: * Round well * Square well Wells also have different geometries at the bottom of the well: * F-Bottom: flat bottom (compatible with through-well optical [[plate reader]] measurements) * V-Bottom: V-shaped bottom ([[Cone|conical]] for round wells, [[square pyramid]] for square wells; improves aspiration of low liquid volumes) * U-Bottom: U-shaped bottom ([[Sphere|half sphere]]; improves aspiration of low liquid volumes) * C-Bottom: bottom with minimal rounded edges Round wells in particular often come in a few diameters: * 6.96 mm<ref>{{cite web |last1=Bio-One |first1=Greiner |title=Customer Drawing - 96 Well Microplate, PP |url=https://shop.gbo.com/en/usa/files/21006157/655201.pdf |access-date=21 April 2023}}</ref> * 8.3 mm
