Optically Clear Tissue Culture Plates have been designed for high content screening (HCS) assays in drug development and related areas. They are also suitable for homogeneous assays, employing fluorescence intensity, FRET and TR-FRET where measurements are bottom-read. The high-quality optical base plate assures the necessary accuracy and consistency for automated high throughput systems, generating optimum signal-to-noise ratios. Using state-of-the-art manufacturing technology, we have developed a product which offers several key advantages to the end user. Optically Clear Tissue Culture Plates are assembled using unique patented laser welding technology which reduces auto fluorescence and does not inhibit cell growth. Available with 190μm polystyrene base. Available TC treated: our advanced tissue-culture (TC) treatment method evenly coats each well for optimal cell adhesion properties for highest reproducibility between wells, plates and batches.

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

It is non sticky when removed from the packaging; this aids handling when wearing gloves. The adhesive is contained within small capsules, allowing light to pass through to ensure the optical clarity of the seal. When the seal is in position, pressure can be applied to burst the capsules, releasing a strong adhesive only where the seal touches the raised well rims of the plate - the rest of the seal area above the wells remains optically clear. Key Features: - Non-pierceable
- Peelable
- Seal integrity range: -80°C to 110°C
- Free from DNase, RNase, and human genomic DNA
