1. A microplate, comprising:
- (a) a plurality of micro-wells (3);
(b) said micro-wells further consisting of a plurality of peripheral wells (9) surrounding a plurality of internal wells (10), so that said peripheral wells are of surrounding disparity compared to said internal wells;
(c) the improvement comprising means of structure adaptation on peripheral areas for compensating said surrounding disparity of said peripheral wells;
whereby said peripheral wells can be deprived of peripheral artifacts associated with said surrounding disparity.

Abstract
The current invention relates to an improved microplate. The microplate is characterized by modified quadrilateral edges, which bring less artificially induced inaccuracies in peripheral wells, especially in corner wells. Preferably, the microplate possesses a bottom that is elongated to cover the non-experimental slots. The microplate might further comprise sham wells.
