Thermoconductive Tube Racks are precision-engineered sample modules manufactured from a novel thermo-conductive alloy material, designed to evenly distribute temperature across all wells providing uniform and consistent temperature to all samples (+/-0.1°C)The modules eliminate variability which originate from tubes placed directly into ice, dry ice, alcohol baths, water baths and other temperature sources.

• Ideal for cooling, snap freezing, heating or thawing
• Helps keep samples organized and dry
• All tubes upright and indexed
• Reproducible method
• Removes all problems created by placing sample directly in ice: variable sample temperature, wet labels, contamination risk

On ice

• Adapts from ambient (25°C) to <4°c in="" 60-90="">
• Samples and labels stay dry
• Hours of ice cooling without direct ice contact

On dry ice

• Adapts from ambient (25°C) to -78°C in approximately 5-7 minutes*
• Eliminates ethanol from snap freezing
• Equal or better freezing rate as compared to direct immersion into dry ice or alcohol slurry

In liquid nitrogen

• Adapts from ambient (25°C) to approximately -150°C in approximately 12-14 minutes*
• Vapor barrier protects from ambient air
• No direct contact between samples and LN2

Heat sources

• Use with water baths, hot plates, incubators and other heat sources to keep samples warm

*Average cooling rate from room temperature

How it Works: Ease of Use:

• Thermoconductive Tube Rack on ice: heat from the relatively warmer Thermoconductive Tube Rack module is transferred to cooling source (wet or dry ice, cartridge, LN2) until equilibrium is reached
• Thermoconductive Tube Rack in water bath: heat is transferred from water bath toward relatively cooler Thermoconductive Tube Rack until equilibrium is reached

4titude peelable heat sealing film, optically clear; suitable for qPCR and optical applications

Heat sealing offers a 100% effective method for plate sealing for a complete seal integrity, as well as being quick and cost effective. Our Clear Heat Seal is an optically clear laminate film forming a peelable seal to polypropylene, polyethylene, polystyrene, polycarbonate and cyclic olefin copolymer (COC) plates. Samples can also be accessed by pre-piercing with a blade, needle or our Pierce Plate (4ti-0398).

The optical clarity of this seal enables its use for sealing plates required for imaging use, including fluorescent detection methods such as qPCR and colorimetric assays. The Clear Heat Seal forms a complete seal to a plate enabling both low temperature uses, including low temperature storage, and high temperature uses, such as PCR (when used with a pressurized heated lid). This seal demonstrates moderate solvent resistance and can be utilized for short term compound storage at room temperature.

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.

Our sheet seals are inter-leaved with paper sheets to help denote which side is the sealing side and aid removal of one sheet at a time from the pack. For applications requiring high tensile strength (e.g. bead mill applications) please see ourClear Heat Seal Plus.

Key Features:

• Peelable
• Seal integrity range: -80°C to 80°C (to 110°C with a pressurized heated PCR lid)
• Optically clear
• Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
• Applications: imaging, fluorescent detection, and colorimetric assays
• Suitable for PCR and qPCR
• Seals polypropylene, polyethylene, polystyrene, polycarbonate and cyclic olefin copolymer (COC) plates
• 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

4titude low profile, 0.1ml polypropylene wells, polycarbonate frame with upstand, cut corner A1, working volume: <100μl, total well capacity: 200μl; designed for use on ABI^® Fast Block cyclers. This semi-skirted low profile plate is recommended for use with ABI^® Fast block

4titude low profile, 0.1ml polypropylene wells, polycarbonate frame with upstand, cut corner A1, working volume: <100μl, total well capacity: 200μl; designed for use on ABI^® Fast Block cyclers. This semi-skirted low profile plate is recommended for use with ABI^® Fast block thermal cyclers. The low profile wells of this plate 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 rigid polycarbonate skirt of this design eliminates warping and distortion during PCR, and makes it ideal for use with robotic systems. Its skirt also allows for labeling or barcoding.

Key Features:

• Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
• Stackable
• 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 ABI^® Fast block thermal cyclers
• Recommended for low volume PCR
• Compatible with standard multichannel pipettes
• Ideal for use with robotic systems
• Standard plate comes with clear polypropylene wells with a clear polypropylene frame
• Also available 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
• Combi packs available (for 4ti-0910/C) with Optically Clear Windowed qPCR Seal (4ti-0565)
• Available barcoded upon request
