| Description | 4titude gas permeable adhesive seal, peelable; suitable for cell culture Our Cell Culture Adhesive Seal is a gas permeable adhesive seal which seals assay and tissue culture plates, microplates and storage plates. The seal prevents evaporation and contamination whilst enabling cells to breathe. It is 4titude gas permeable adhesive seal, peelable; suitable for cell culture Our Cell Culture Adhesive Seal is a gas permeable adhesive seal which seals assay and tissue culture plates, microplates and storage plates. The seal prevents evaporation and contamination whilst enabling cells to breathe. It is made of a non-woven fiber with an acrylate adhesive layer for effective sealing. The seal has a low moisture transfer rate and a porosity enabling gas exchange. Due to its paper-based material it should not be used in wet conditions. The seal is suitable for cell culture and enables long term culture with significantly reduced evaporation. For all adhesive seals, the best sealing results are achieved using the hand held Adhesive Seal Roller (4ti-0502). Key Features: - Peelable

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
- Compatible with standard multichannel pipettes
- Available with the following frame color options for the clear well variety: purple, blue, and clear
- Also available as a black frame with white wells for optimum signal-to-noise ratio when using fluorescent based assays

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
