4titude optically clear heat sealing film, non-peelable, difficult to pierce; suitable for qPCR, optical applications and storage

Heat sealing offers a 100% effective method for plate sealing for a complete seal integrity, as well as being quick and cost effective. Our Clear Weld Heat Seal is an optically clear polymer film forming a permanent seal to polypropylene plates. The optical clarity of this seal enables its use for sealing plates required for imaging use, including fluorescent detection methods such as qPCR and colorimetric assays.

The Clear Weld Heat Seal forms a complete seal to a plate, enabling both low and very high temperature uses, including low temperature storage and high temperature incubations. This seal is suitable for PCR/qPCR, even without the use of a pressurized heated lid, and is 100% effective when used in water bath thermal cyclers.

The permanent nature of this 100% effective seal renders it suitable for the storage and disposal of hazardous material. Clear Weld Heat Seal demonstrates a good solvent resistance and can be utilized for long term compound storage. Samples can be accessed by pre-piercing with a blade, needle or our Pierce Plate (4ti-0398).

This seal is available as sheets, for use with manual and semi-automated sealers, such as our Semi-Automated Sheet Heat Sealer. Also available in multiple roll formats compatible with specified automated heat sealers, such as our Automated Roll Heat Sealer.

• Permanent seal
• Difficult to pierce
• Non-peelable
• Seal integrity range: -80°C to 110°C
• DMSO and solvent resistant
• Autoclavable (121°C)*
• Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
• Applications: suitable for PCR and qPCR, long term storage, and disposal of hazardous materials
• Seals polypropylene plates
• Compatible with water bath thermal cyclers
• Sheet format: 125 x 78mm, to fit all standard SBS footprint PCR and qPCR plates, microplates, assay and storage plates, from 12 well to 1536 well

• Non-sterile as standard; sterilization available upon request

* Once autoclaved, not recommended for PCR applications.

4titude 1.2ml and 2.2ml square wells, U and V shaped bottom, clear polypropylene. These storage plates are designed for high density sample collection and storage for a wide array of applications within cell biology, molecular biology and drug discovery. They come in three formats: 1.2ml

4titude 1.2ml and 2.2ml square wells, U and V shaped bottom, clear polypropylene. These storage plates are designed for high density sample collection and storage for a wide array of applications within cell biology, molecular biology and drug discovery. They come in three formats: 1.2ml volume U shaped well plates (4ti-0126), 2.2ml volume V shaped (4ti-0132), and 2.2ml volume U shaped (4ti-0136) plates. 4ti-0126 is also recommended as an elution plate on KingFisher™ platforms.

All of these plates are ultra-flat for a completely uniform seal, either with adhesive or heat seals, or with our accompanying silicone sealing mat (4ti-0137). These 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 RNase, DNase, human genomic DNA and endotoxins
• Conical V-bottoms (4ti-0132) and U-shaped bottoms (4ti-0126 and 4ti-0136)
• 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
• U-shaped bottom plates are best for washing, mixing and pelleting and give high surface area
• Stackable
• Suitable for adhesive and heat sealing
• Available with a U-shaped bottom in 1.2ml and 2.2ml
• Also available with a V-shaped bottom in 2.2ml
• Non-sterile as standard, sterilization available upon request
• Available barcoded upon request
• A clear silicone sealing mat (4ti-0137) is also available to fit these plates
