There are several companies that make equipment to prepare microtiter plate 
products. To my knowledge all are made to dispense the same antigen in the 96 
wells. From you question, I suspect you wish to dispense different 
analytes or antigens into the different wells.

If done commercially, we would make several plates of one antigen and later 
interchange strips to prepare plates with either 8 or 12 different analytes or 
antigens.

If this sounds usefull, then I suggest that you determine the average batch 
size. If less than 200-300, I suggest that you prepare the plates by hand. If 
more than 300, then equipement may be useful, but the capital cost will be 
between $15,000 and $30,000 (US).

If interested, I might suggest ways to keep your labor done and make plates by 
hand.
