FluidX 0.9ml dual-coded tubes offer unequaled sample audit traceability, enabling sample tracking and data sharing between multiple users, labs, locations and automation capabilities

• Next Generation manufacturing techniques
• Code readable without removing tubes from racks
• Suitable for cryogenic storage
• Made from high-quality virgin PP
• Available in 96-well format SBS racks or bulk
• Sealable with screw caps/TPE septum caps

Designed and developed with broad compatibility in mind, the tubes perform without compromise in conjunction with automated barcode reading, capping and sample management systems from Azenta Life Sciences and all other industry-recognized manufacturers.

Provides a lifelong and secure chain of custody for samples in biobanks, compound libraries and a broad range of biological and chemical stores, including cryogenic storage. Developed to exceed the demands of sample security, management and tracking in modern high density storage applications.

Each tube features a permanent laser etched 2D code and human readable number on tube base, allowing compatibility with low throughput manual, semi-automated or fully automated workflows on integrated platforms. Both codes are identical and auditing processes guarantee both codes match; standard 2D coding option is white on black.

4titude gas permeable adhesive seal, peelable; suitable for cell culture

Our Cell Culture Adhesive Seal is a gas permeable adhesive seal which seals assay and tissue culture plates, microplates and storage plates. The seal prevents evaporation and contamination whilst enabling cells to breathe. It is made of a non-woven fiber with an acrylate adhesive layer for effective sealing. The seal has a low moisture transfer rate and a porosity enabling gas exchange.

Due to its paper-based material it should not be used in wet conditions. The seal is suitable for cell culture and enables long term culture with significantly reduced evaporation. For all adhesive seals, the best sealing results are achieved using the hand held Adhesive Seal Roller (4ti-0502).

Key Features:

• Peelable
• Seal integrity range: -20°C to 40°C
• Gas permeability rate: 8,900m³/m²/day
• Moisture vapor transmission rate (very low): 4,200g/m²/day
• Air porosity: 10 sec/100 cc/im²
• RNase/DNase free
• Application: bacterial and eukaryotic cell culture
• Sheet format: 135 x 80mm
• Available sterile (4ti-0517/ST)

4titude 96 well semi-skirted plate, vertically scored, snaps easily into strips of 8 tubes or part plates, cut corner A12; standard profile, 0.2ml polypropylene wells, polycarbonate frame; working volume: <200μl, total well capacity: 300μl. Our FrameStar Breakable Vertically PCR Plates

4titude 96 well semi-skirted plate, vertically scored, snaps easily into strips of 8 tubes or part plates, cut corner A12; standard profile, 0.2ml polypropylene wells, polycarbonate frame; working volume: <200μl, total well capacity: 300μl. Our FrameStar Breakable Vertically PCR Plates utilize the 2-component design of the FrameStar range, which combines the advantages of thin-walled polypropylene tubes for optimum PCR results and a rigid frame portion for easy and reliable handling.

Key Features:

• Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
• 2-component design prevents distortion of tube strips
• Ultra-smooth, uniform, thin-walled polypropylene tubes for optimum PCR and real-time (RT-qPCR) results
• Standard 0.2ml (200μl) working volume, with a 0.3ml (300μl) total well capacity when used with sealing options
• End tabs for easy handling and labeling
• Eliminates strip breakage
• Alphanumeric grid reference to aid well and sample identification
• Rigid PCR plate that can be broken into smaller plate sections
• Fits majority of thermal cyclers
• Compatible with standard multichannel pipettes
• Available with the following frame color options for the clear well variety: purple, blue, clear, green, red, black, and white
• Also available as a black frame with white wells for use with optical assays such as qPCR
• Also available as a FrameStar Breakable Vertically PCR Plate, Low Profile (0.1ml well capacity option)
• 2D coding option

4titude heavy duty heat sealing foil, peelable; suitable for long term storage, transportation

Heat sealing offers a 100% effective method of plate sealing, for complete seal integrity, as well as being quick and cost effective. Our Thermal Bond Heat Seal is a heavy duty laminate foil seal suitable for providing a very strong, but peelable seal. The seal is compatible with polypropylene plates to provide a high degree of sample protection.

It demonstrates very good solvent resistance and can be used for very low temperature compound storage, in DMSO and organic solvents, and long term room temperature storage such that it is recommended as suitable for sample transportation. The seal can be pierced only by using a blade or using the Pierce Plate (4ti-0398).

This seal is available as sheets, for use with manual and semi-automated sealers, such as our Semi-Automated Sheet Heat Sealer. Also available in multiple roll formats compatible with specified automated heat sealers, such as our Automated Roll Heat Sealer.

Key Features:

• Peelable
• Seal integrity range: -200°C to 110°C
• High solvent resistance
• Autoclavable (121°C)
• Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
• Recommended for PCR, including with water bath thermal cyclers
• Seals polypropylene plates
• Suitable for long term storage and transportation
• Suitable for very low temperature storage
• Sheet format: 125 x 78mm, to fit all standard SBS footprint PCR and qPCR plates, microplates, assay and storage plates, from 12 well to 1536 well
• Roll format: available in a variety of roll dimensions, to suit your choice of automatic heat sealing equipment
• Non-sterile as standard; sterilization available upon request

FluidX cap carriers enable automated capping of 96-format sample storage tubes, leading to improved process efficiency and allowing batch filling of tubes prior to capping

FluidX cap carriers enable automated capping of 96-format sample storage tubes, leading to improved process efficiency and allowing batch filling of tubes prior to capping

• Suitable automated and manual capping
• Available in 96-format SBS footprint
• For use with external/internal thread tubes
• Available empty or pre-filled with caps

Suitable for manual use or for use with Azenta Life Sciences Semi-Automated Screw Cap Decappers/Recappers, Single Channel and IntelliXcap™ Automated Screw Cap Decappers/Recappers.

• Enable uncapped tubes to be used immediately and then capped using an automated capping and de-capping system
• When used manually, by transferring caps from the carrier to the tube using a single tube transfer device, the operation becomes faster and the risk of contamination is reduced as cap handling is eliminated
• Available in cases of 10 or 50, empty or pre-filled with low-retention screw caps that can reduce sample loss
