96-Well Plate Diagram

A 96-well plate diagram is a labeled map of a standard microplate arranged as an 8x12 grid of 96 wells, with rows A to H and columns 1 to 12. It shows what goes in each well — samples, controls, standards, and replicates — so you can plan and document a plate-based experiment clearly.

A 96-well plate has exactly 96 wells, laid out in an 8x12 rectangular grid. The eight rows are labeled A through H and the twelve columns are labeled 1 through 12, giving each well a unique coordinate such as A1 or H12 that you can reference in your plate map.

You can build an editable 96-well plate template on SciFig: describe your plate setup and the generator produces an 8x12 microplate layout you can relabel. You then fill in your own samples, controls, and dilution series per well and export the diagram for your protocol.

Label a 96-well plate layout using its grid coordinates: rows are lettered A to H from top to bottom and columns are numbered 1 to 12 from left to right. Each well is then named by its row and column, such as B3 or G11, and you annotate each with its sample, control, or condition.

Yes. After generating the figure you can open it in SciFig's editor to vectorize it into clean SVG, recolor wells by group, relabel rows and columns, and adjust the contents of each well to match your microplate setup before exporting it for a paper or slide.

A plate setup template is a blank 8x12 grid you fill in before an experiment to plan well contents, while a 96-well plate map is the completed record showing what was actually placed in each well. SciFig lets you generate the blank template and then keep editing it into a finished plate map.
