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 aluminum heat sealing foil, resealable, peelable, pierceable; suitable for compound storage, PCR

Our Foil Heat Seal is compatible with polypropylene and polystyrene plates. This seal demonstrates moderate solvent resistance and can be used for low temperature compound storage in DMSO and organic solvents and short term room temperature storage. The Foil Heat Seal can be pierced with a pipette tip, manually or by liquid handling robots, or it can be removed by peeling. It can be resealed by applying another Foil Heat Seal directly on top of a previously pierced seal.

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.

A red stripe on the sheet foils clearly indicates the non-sealing surface, for ease of seal orientation and handling.
