| Description | 4titude ultra-clear base imaging microplate, black frame. The main advantage of using Ultra Optically Clear Plates is in the optically ultra-clear base of the plate, which gives superior results by delivering low absorbance and high transmission, together with low background signals. Not only this, 4titude ultra-clear base imaging microplate, black frame. The main advantage of using Ultra Optically Clear Plates is in the optically ultra-clear base of the plate, which gives superior results by delivering low absorbance and high transmission, together with low background signals. Not only this, but due to its incredible optical clarity, the ultra-clear base of these plates delivers improved transmission of signals at low wavelengths compared to standard optical films. It allows DNA measurements at 260/280nm wavelengths in a medium or high throughput. Key Features: - Free from DNase, RNase and human genomic DNA

Read More | 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 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

Each tube clicks into place in the frame ensuring tubes are secure once inserted. The Individual Access range includes PCR plates with optically clear flat bottom wells for microscopy applications. The Individual Access 96 Well Skirted Optical Bottom PCR Plates (next to their counterpart within our FrameStar® range, 4ti-0970) are currently unique in the market, being suitable for use in both microscopy and PCR, for example, when single cell sorting is followed by molecular biology applications such as qPCR and sequencing. Due to their flat bottoms and stackability, these plates are 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 rigid polycarbonate skirt of this design eliminates warping and distortion during PCR. Together with the SBS footprint, this makes the plate suitable for use with robotic systems, ideal for both small and high throughput labs. Empty frames are available for tubes to be transferred to. The frames can be re-used multiple times, depending on the application. 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
- Alphanumeric grid reference to aid well and sample identification
- Suitable for microscopy and small volume sample storage
- 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 still be separated after sealing
- 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
- Also available as a FrameStar plate (4ti-0970) with fixed wells
- Empty frames are available for tubes to be transferred to; frames can be re-used multiple times, depending on the application
