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.

Key Features:

• Non-pierceable
• 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

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 rigid polycarbonate frame, for use with Removable 8 Well PCR Tube Strips; for universal use. These frames of 96 Well Semi-Skirted PCR Plate for Removable 8 Well Tube Strips, Roche Style are molded from rigid polycarbonate for use with our polypropylene Removable 8 Well PCR Tube Strips. The Removable 8 Well PCR Tube Strips are inserted into the frames to form a complete plate, part plate, or individual strip with an easy-to-handle frame. As the Removable 8 Well PCR Tube Strips are interchangeable with the frames, the frames themselves are re-usable; simply purchase more Removable 8 Well PCR Tube Strips to use.

The frames can be purchased separately, or pre-loaded with Removable 8 Well PCR Tube Strips.

Key Features:

• Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
• The Removable 8 Well PCR Tube Strips have ultra-smooth, uniform, thin-walled polypropylene tubes for optimum PCR and real-time (RT-qPCR) results
• The Removable 8 Well PCR Tube Strips have a low profile 0.1ml (100μl) working volume, with a 0.2ml (200μl) total well capacity when used with sealing options
• Raised well rims prevent cross contamination and facilitate effective sealing for reduced evaporation
• Rigid polycarbonate frames, which reduce thermal expansion and sample evaporation during PCR, leading to improved consistency in PCR results
• Alphanumeric grid reference to aid well and sample identification
• Compatible with standard multichannel pipettes
• Available as a 96 Well Skirted Frame for universal use
• Also available as a Roche Style plate for use with the Roche LightCycler^® 480
• Frames can be purchased on their own or pre-loaded with Removable 8 Well PCR Tube Strips
• The Removable 8 Well PCR Tube Strips are available with clear wells
• The Removable 8 Well PCR Tube Strips also available with white wells, giving the highest sensitivity and consistency for fluorescent detection during qPCR
• Available barcoded upon request

Thermoconductive Tube Racks are precision-engineered sample modules manufactured from a novel thermo-conductive alloy material, designed to evenly distribute temperature across all wells providing uniform and consistent temperature to all samples (+/-0.1°C)The modules eliminate variability which originate from tubes placed directly into ice, dry ice, alcohol baths, water baths and other temperature sources.

• Ideal for cooling, snap freezing, heating or thawing
• Helps keep samples organized and dry
• All tubes upright and indexed
• Reproducible method
• Removes all problems created by placing sample directly in ice: variable sample temperature, wet labels, contamination risk

On ice

• Adapts from ambient (25°C) to <4°c in="" 60-90="">
• 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*
• Vapor barrier protects from ambient air
• No direct contact between samples and LN2

Heat sources

• Use with water baths, hot plates, incubators and other heat sources to keep samples warm

*Average cooling rate from room temperature

How it Works: Ease of Use:

• Thermoconductive Tube Rack on ice: heat from the relatively warmer Thermoconductive Tube Rack module is transferred to cooling source (wet or dry ice, cartridge, LN2) until equilibrium is reached
• Thermoconductive Tube Rack in water bath: heat is transferred from water bath toward relatively cooler Thermoconductive Tube Rack until equilibrium is reached
