| Description | 4titude optically clear adhesive film, pressure activated adhesive, peelable; suitable for qPCR and other imaging techniques including crystallization Optically clear seal specifically developed for optical applications, particularly qPCR. It is non sticky when removed from the packaging; this aids 4titude optically clear adhesive film, pressure activated adhesive, peelable; suitable for qPCR and other imaging techniques including crystallization Optically clear seal specifically developed for optical applications, particularly qPCR. 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.

- Peelable
- Seal integrity range: -80°C to 110°C
- Free from DNase, RNase, and human genomic DNA
- Non-sterile
- Applications: qPCR and other fluorescent applications, plate readers, microscopy and protein crystallization (96 or 384 well)
- Removal: will not leave a sticky residue on the plate surface following removal
- Replacement for: ABI® MicroAmp Optical Adhesive film, Absolute qPCR plate seals and Roche LightCycler® sealing foils
- Sheet format: 140 x 77mm, to fit all standard SBS footprint PCR and qPCR plates, microplates, assay and storage plates with 96 round wells
- Roll format: 100m x 80mm, approx. 700 seals

This plate is designed for high density sample collection and storage, for a wide array of applications within cell biology, molecular biology and drug discovery. The V shaped wells allow for complete sample retention with 4titude 190μl square wells, V shaped bases, clear polypropylene. This plate is designed for high density sample collection and storage, for a wide array of applications within cell biology, molecular biology and drug discovery. The V shaped wells allow for complete sample retention with pipettes, and are ultra-flat for a completely uniform seal, either with adhesive or heat seals, or with our accompanying silicone sealing mat (4ti-0139). Our plates are manufactured in cleanroom facilities which are certified free of RNase, DNase, human genomic DNA and endotoxins. We use only the highest medical grade virgin polypropylene with high resistance against chemicals such as DMSO, phenol, and chloroform. Key Features: - Made from polypropylene, a material with very low biomolecular binding characteristics, a high temperature tolerance and resistance to many standard laboratory chemicals, including DMSO
- Autoclavable
- Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin
- Conical V-bottoms
- Square wells, to make the best use of space, and to improve mixing
- Alphanumeric grid reference to aid well and sample identification
- SBS footprint
- Clear plate, perfect for storage applications
- Temperature range for use: -80°C to 120°C
- Best for precipitation, centrifugation and small volume recovery due to the conical V bottom, as the liquid gathers at the lowest point of the V for easy pipetting
- Stackable
- Suitable for adhesive and heat sealing
- Non-sterile as standard, sterilization available upon request; contact an expert for details and pricing
- Available barcoded upon request
- A clear silicone sealing mat (4ti-0139) is also available to fit this product, with 384 sections to correspond with the wells of this 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

On ice - Adapts from ambient (25°C) to <4°c in="" 60-90="">4°c>
- Samples and labels stay dry
- Hours of ice cooling without direct ice contact
On dry ice - Adapts from ambient (25°C) to -78°C in approximately 5-7 minutes*
- Eliminates ethanol from snap freezing
- Equal or better freezing rate as compared to direct immersion into dry ice or alcohol slurry
In liquid nitrogen - Adapts from ambient (25°C) to approximately -150°C in approximately 12-14 minutes*
