4titude standard profile, 0.2ml polypropylene wells, polycarbonate frame, cut corner H1, working volume: <200μl, total well capacity: 300μl; universal non-skirted plate designed for use on all major thermal cyclers. The rigid FrameStar 2-component design eliminates warping and

4titude standard profile, 0.2ml polypropylene wells, polycarbonate frame, cut corner H1, working volume: <200μl, total well capacity: 300μl; universal non-skirted plate designed for use on all major thermal cyclers. The rigid FrameStar 2-component design eliminates warping and distortion during PCR, meaning seal integrity is not compromised and less of your sample is lost through evaporation.

• Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
• Ultra-smooth, uniform, thin-walled polypropylene tubes for optimum PCR and real-time (RT-qPCR) results
• <0.2ml (200μl) working volume, 0.3ml (300μl) total well capacity
• Rigid polycarbonate frame for added mechanical stability
• Significantly reduced thermal expansion and sample evaporation for improved consistency in PCR results
• Improved seal integrity due to thermal stability of frame
• Alphanumeric grid reference to aid well and sample identification
• Recommended for low volume PCR
• Compatible with standard multichannel pipettes
• Also available as a black frame with white wells for optimum signal-to-noise ratio when using fluorescent based assays

4titude standard profile, 0.2ml polypropylene wells, polycarbonate frame, cut corner A12; working volume: <200μl, total well capacity: 300μl; designed for use on all major cyclers, including ABI^® instruments with standard 96 well blocks. Specifically designed to be directly compatible with all major thermal cyclers, this plate can be used directly in ABI^® 96 well instruments without the need for any adapters. The rigid FrameStar 2-component design eliminates warping and distortion during PCR, making it ideal for use with robotic systems. The semi-skirt allows for labeling or barcoding for sample tracking.

• Also available as a black frame with white wells for optimum signal-to-noise ratio when using fluorescent based assays
• Also available as a clear frame with frosted wells for use with ABI^®/LifeTechnologies^® qPCR instruments
• Ultra-low DNA binding option available (4ti-LB0770/C) for sensitive applications with ultra-low DNA input and for maximum DNA recovery after low temperature storage and high temperature incubation

4titude 96 individual tubes in plate format, low profile, flat bottom 2D coded, 0.1ml clear polypropylene tubes, white rigid polycarbonate frame, linear barcoded, cut corner H1, working volume: <100μl, total well capacity: 180μl. 96 well, fully skirted, low profile format with each tube

4titude 96 individual tubes in plate format, low profile, flat bottom 2D coded, 0.1ml clear polypropylene tubes, white rigid polycarbonate frame, linear barcoded, cut corner H1, working volume: <100μl, total well capacity: 180μl. 96 well, fully skirted, low profile format with each tube inserted separately into the plate frame, allowing for selection and removal of individual tubes from the plate. Each tube clicks into place in the frame ensuring tubes are secure once inserted.

The Individual Access range includes PCR plates with 2D coded flat bottoms for applications that require superior sample tracking. In applications where it is essential for samples to be tracked throughout their processing, e.g. for diagnostic assays on clinical samples, tube labeling is a far safer and reliable method compared to cap or seal labeling (which can be misplaced, damaged or rendered unreadable after piercing).

Empty frames are available for tubes to be transferred to. The frames can be re-used multiple times, depending on the application. Sample tubes can be identified by the unique 2D code on the base of the wells, removed from the Individual Access plate quickly and easily, and moved to another Individual Access frame for downstream processing or storage.

Quick selection of desired tubes reduces the time needed for the sample plate to be out of the freezer and therefore reduces the chance of other wells defrosting in the meantime. Flat bottom PCR plates can be stacked, allowing for optimal use of freezer space as multiple plates can be housed in the same space as a storage rack.

Key Features:

• Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
• Individually removable from the rigid frame, while the rest of the tubes can remain in storage, reducing freeze-thawing of the whole plate
• Thin walled tubes are made from PP for optimal results in (q)PCR whilst also being suitable for storage and incubation
• <100μl working volume, <180μl total well capacity
• Rigid polycarbonate frame provides mechanical stability of the plate
• These plates are labeled with linear Code 128-format barcodes to aid identification and traceability for your samples
• Alphanumeric grid reference to aid well and sample identification
• Suitable for small volume sample storage, allowing for optimal use of freezer space as multiple plates can be housed in the same space as a storage rack
• Ideal for use with robotic systems
• Fewer transfer steps as the same tube can be used for microscopy, (q)PCR and storage
• Each tube can be individually heat sealed using the Individual Access Pierce Heat Seal Strong, such as the contents of each tube is left secure from cross contamination and evaporation for storage and transfer
• Each tube can still be separated after sealing
• Also available as a Individual Access optical bottom plate (4ti-0970/RA) with black frame, ideal for microscopy and PCR
• Empty frames are available for tubes to be transferred to; frames can be re-used multiple times, depending on the application
• We also offer customization of the Individual Access Plates such as color coding of the individual wells; please contact an expert for details
• The plate can be sealed in one step using Individual Access Pierce Heat Seal Strong (4ti-05381/RA) on the Semi-Automated Sheet Heat Sealer (using the 59-2005 Individual Access adapter), resulting in individually sealed tubes with pierceable seals to allow for sample access

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
