Cell Freezing Containers for controlled-rate alcohol-free cell freezing provide a highly reproducible -1?/minute freezing rate when placed in a -80? freezer, with no alcohol or fluids required. The Cell Freezing Container technology utilizes a thermo-conductive alloy core and highly-insulative outer material to control the rate of heat removal to provide reproducible cell cryopreservation. The insulative outer housing and thermo-conductive solid state core ensure consistent heat removal to all vials throughout the freezing period.

Cell Freezing Containers can replace isopropanol-based freezing containers such as Mr. Frosty by ThermoFisher Scientific and others, which can consume up to 12l per year of IPA and cost hundreds of dollars per unit per year to maintain.

• Cost saving as no alcohol or fluids required
• Consistent heat removal through freezing period
• Unbreakable, easy and safe to open when frozen
• Easy and fast vial identification and removal
• Quick reuse time: the containers are ready to use again after 5 minutes
• For use with stem cells, primary cells and cell lines

4titude 1.2ml and 2.2ml square wells, U and V shaped bottom, clear polypropylene. These storage plates are designed for high density sample collection and storage for a wide array of applications within cell biology, molecular biology and drug discovery. They come in three formats: 1.2ml

4titude 1.2ml and 2.2ml square wells, U and V shaped bottom, clear polypropylene. These storage plates are designed for high density sample collection and storage for a wide array of applications within cell biology, molecular biology and drug discovery. They come in three formats: 1.2ml volume U shaped well plates (4ti-0126), 2.2ml volume V shaped (4ti-0132), and 2.2ml volume U shaped (4ti-0136) plates. 4ti-0126 is also recommended as an elution plate on KingFisher™ platforms.

All of these plates are ultra-flat for a completely uniform seal, either with adhesive or heat seals, or with our accompanying silicone sealing mat (4ti-0137). These plates are manufactured in cleanroom facilities which are certified free of RNase, DNase, human genomic DNA and endotoxins. We use only the highest medical grade virgin polypropylene with high resistance against chemicals such as DMSO, phenol, and chloroform.

Key Features:

• Made from polypropylene, a material with very low biomolecular binding characteristics, a high temperature tolerance and resistance to many standard laboratory chemicals, including DMSO
• Autoclavable
• Free from RNase, DNase, human genomic DNA and endotoxins
• Conical V-bottoms (4ti-0132) and U-shaped bottoms (4ti-0126 and 4ti-0136)
• Square wells, to make the best use of space, and to improve mixing
• Alphanumeric grid reference to aid well and sample identification
• SBS footprint
• Clear plate, perfect for storage applications
• Temperature range for use: -80°C to 120°C
• Best for precipitation, centrifugation and small volume recovery due to the conical V bottom, as the liquid gathers at the lowest point of the V for easy pipetting
• U-shaped bottom plates are best for washing, mixing and pelleting and give high surface area
• Stackable
• Suitable for adhesive and heat sealing
• Available with a U-shaped bottom in 1.2ml and 2.2ml
• Also available with a V-shaped bottom in 2.2ml
• Non-sterile as standard, sterilization available upon request
• Available barcoded upon request
• A clear silicone sealing mat (4ti-0137) is also available to fit these plates

4titude low profile, 0.1ml polypropylene wells, polycarbonate frame, cut corner H12; working volume: <100μl, total well capacity: 200μl; designed for use on Roche LightCycler^® 96 and 480 (with 96 well block). Our FrameStar Roche Style plates are designed to achieve optimized assay

4titude low profile, 0.1ml polypropylene wells, polycarbonate frame, cut corner H12; working volume: <100μl, total well capacity: 200μl; designed for use on Roche LightCycler^® 96 and 480 (with 96 well block). Our FrameStar Roche Style plates are designed to achieve optimized assay conditions on the Roche LightCycler^® 96 and 480 (with 96 well block). This particular style of plate is in a low profile 96-well format; perfect for reaction volumes of 10-100μl. The wells are shorter than "standard" profile wells, which decrease the "dead space" between the heated lid of the thermal cycler and the sample in the well. This eliminates condensation forming on the side wall of the tubes, preventing reduction in PCR volume and increasing the efficiency of the reaction. This is especially recommended for reaction volumes below 20μl. The semi-skirted frame allows for labeling or barcoding.

Key Features:

• 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
• <0.1ml (100μl) working volume, 0.2ml (200μl) 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
• Compatible with the Roche LightCycler^® 96 and 480 (with 96 well block)
• Recommended for low volume PCR
• Ideal for use with robotic systems
• Compatible with standard multichannel pipettes
• Standard plate comes with clear polypropylene wells on a clear polycarbonate frame
• Also available with white wells for optimum signal-to-noise ratio when using fluorescent based assays
• Available barcoded upon request;
• Combi packs available with qPCR Seal (4ti-0560) and (for 4ti-0951) with Optically Clear Windowed qPCR Seal (4ti-0564)

4titude pierceable heat sealing foil, high solvent resistance, resealable, suitable for PCR/storage/shipping

Heat sealing offers a 100% effective method of plate sealing, for complete seal integrity, as well as being quick and cost effective. Pierce Heat Seal is compatible with polypropylene and polystyrene plates. This seal demonstrates good solvent resistance and can be used for low temperature and room temperature compound storage in DMSO and organic solvents.

Pierce Heat Seal can be pierced with a pipette tip manually, or by a liquid handling robot. This seal can be resealed by applying another Pierce Seal straight on top of a previously pierced seal. A blue stripe on the sheet foils clearly indicates the non-sealing surface, for ease of seal orientation and handling. Pierce Heat Seal sheets are also available with a printed grid reference on the non-sealing surface.

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:

• Pierceable
• Resealable
• Seal integrity range: -20°C to 120°C
• Good solvent resistance
• Autoclavable (121°C)
• Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
• Seals polypropylene and polystyrene plates
• Suitable for long term 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
• Available with printed grid reference (in sheet format, 4ti-0531/GR)
• Non-sterile as standard; sterilization available upon request
• Custom printing available on request
