placa
Explanation:
Estou convencido que a palavra deveria ser "plate". No primeiro link abaixo, diz: "The sample with an unknown amount of antigen is immobilized on a solid support (usually a polystyrene microtiter plate)", ou seja, prato.

Na versão em português, no segundo link, diz: "Normalmente é usada uma placa de superfície inerte".

E esta empresa vende "placas" ou "microplacas" para ELISA:
