The low profile wells of this plate are shorter than "standard" 4titude low profile, 0.1ml polypropylene wells, polycarbonate frame, cut corner H1, working volume: <100μl, total well capacity: 200μl; universal non-skirted, low profile plate designed for use on all major 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, meaning seal integrity is not compromised and less of your sample is lost through evaporation. 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
- Recommended for low volume PCR
