Description
4titude low profile, flat optical bottom, 0.1ml clear polypropylene wells, clear polycarbonate frame, cut corner H1, working volume: <100μl, total well capacity: 180μl. This PCR plate with optically clear flat bottom wells is ideal for microscopy applications. Optical bottom plates are ideal for applications requiring single cell sorting followed by molecular biology techniques such as (q)PCR and sequencing. The flat bottoms enable excellent stackability, making these plates well suited for small sample volume storage such as compound libraries, with no risk of damaging the seal of the plate below. Additionally, the small well volume enables excellent sample recovery.
The low profile wells of this plate are shorter than "standard" profile wells, which decreases the "dead space" between the heated lid of the thermal cycler and the reagents in the well. This reduces condensation forming on the side wall of the tubes, moderating changes in PCR volume and increasing the efficiency of the reaction. This is especially recommended for reaction volumes below 20μl.
Key Features:
