4titude 96 individual tubes in plate format, low profile, flat bottom 2D coded, 0.1ml clear polypropylene tubes, white rigid polycarbonate frame, linear barcoded, cut corner H1, working volume: <100μl, total well capacity: 180μl. 96 well, fully skirted, low profile format with each tube

4titude 96 individual tubes in plate format, low profile, flat bottom 2D coded, 0.1ml clear polypropylene tubes, white rigid polycarbonate frame, linear barcoded, cut corner H1, working volume: <100μl, total well capacity: 180μl. 96 well, fully skirted, low profile format with each tube inserted separately into the plate frame, allowing for selection and removal of individual tubes from the plate. Each tube clicks into place in the frame ensuring tubes are secure once inserted.

The Individual Access range includes PCR plates with 2D coded flat bottoms for applications that require superior sample tracking. In applications where it is essential for samples to be tracked throughout their processing, e.g. for diagnostic assays on clinical samples, tube labeling is a far safer and reliable method compared to cap or seal labeling (which can be misplaced, damaged or rendered unreadable after piercing).

Empty frames are available for tubes to be transferred to. The frames can be re-used multiple times, depending on the application. Sample tubes can be identified by the unique 2D code on the base of the wells, removed from the Individual Access plate quickly and easily, and moved to another Individual Access frame for downstream processing or storage.

Quick selection of desired tubes reduces the time needed for the sample plate to be out of the freezer and therefore reduces the chance of other wells defrosting in the meantime. Flat bottom PCR plates can be stacked, allowing for optimal use of freezer space as multiple plates can be housed in the same space as a storage rack.

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
• These plates are labeled with linear Code 128-format barcodes to aid identification and traceability for your samples
• Alphanumeric grid reference to aid well and sample identification
• Suitable for small volume sample storage, allowing for optimal use of freezer space as multiple plates can be housed in the same space as a storage rack
• 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 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
• Each tube can still be separated after sealing
• Also available as a Individual Access optical bottom plate (4ti-0970/RA) with black frame, ideal for microscopy and PCR
• Empty frames are available for tubes to be transferred to; frames can be re-used multiple times, depending on the application
• We also offer customization of the Individual Access Plates such as color coding of the individual wells; please contact an expert for details
• The plate can be sealed in one step using Individual Access Pierce Heat Seal Strong (4ti-05381/RA) on the Semi-Automated Sheet Heat Sealer (using the 59-2005 Individual Access adapter), resulting in individually sealed tubes with pierceable seals to allow for sample access

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
• Ultra-clear base improves transmission for low wavelengths
• Peel-back film on the base for scratch free surface
• Optimum signal-to-noise ratios
• Alphanumeric grid reference to aid well and sample identification
• Suitable for adhesive and heat sealing
• Available barcoded upon request
• Low profile lid available (4ti-0280)

Azenta Life Sciences 8 Well PCR Tube Strips with PC Frame are a 2-component design, combining the advantages of thin-walled tubes for optimum PCR results and a rigid frame portion for easy and reliable handling.

Key Features:

• Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
• Made of polypropylene, for the most efficient heat transfer, as well as an inert surface with low binding capabilities for nucleic acids, proteins and other molecules
• By molding the frame portion in a more rigid polymer, the mechanical stability of the strip has been greatly improved compared with traditional single piece products
• End tabs allow for easy handling and labeling of the strips
• Compatible with the majority of thermal cyclers
• Available with the following frame color options for the clear well variety, for color coding of experiments: purple, blue, green, red, and black
• Also available with white wells in black frames for optical assays such as those used in qPCR, as white wells increase the signal-to-noise ratio by maximizing reflection of light in fluorescent based assays
• Available with either domed cap strips or with flat optically clear caps
• Also available with an off-the-shelf 2D code, offering an endless supply of unique code combinations

4titude low profile, 0.1ml polypropylene wells, polycarbonate frame, cut corner H1; working volume: <100μl, total well capacity: 200μl. 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

4titude low profile, 0.1ml polypropylene wells, polycarbonate frame, cut corner H1; working volume: <100μl, total well capacity: 200μl. 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.

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
• Recommended for low volume PCR
• Ideal for use with robotic systems
• Compatible with standard multichannel pipettes
