| Description | 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 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

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
- Seal integrity range: -20°C to 40°C
- Gas permeability rate: 8,900m3/m2/day
- Moisture vapor transmission rate (very low): 4,200g/m2/day
- Air porosity: 10 sec/100 cc/im2
- RNase/DNase free
- Application: bacterial and eukaryotic cell culture
- Sheet format: 135 x 80mm
- Available sterile (4ti-0517/ST)

... Read More | 4titude aluminum heat sealing foil, resealable, peelable, pierceable; suitable for compound storage, PCR Our Foil Heat Seal is compatible with polypropylene and polystyrene plates. This seal demonstrates moderate solvent resistance and can be used for low temperature compound storage in DMSO and 4titude aluminum heat sealing foil, resealable, peelable, pierceable; suitable for compound storage, PCR Our Foil Heat Seal is compatible with polypropylene and polystyrene plates. This seal demonstrates moderate solvent resistance and can be used for low temperature compound storage in DMSO and organic solvents and short term room temperature storage. The Foil Heat Seal can be pierced with a pipette tip, manually or by liquid handling robots, or it can be removed by peeling. It can be resealed by applying another Foil Heat Seal directly on top of a previously pierced seal. 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. A red stripe on the sheet foils clearly indicates the non-sealing surface, for ease of seal orientation and handling. Key Features: - Pierceable
- Peelable
- Resealable
- Seal integrity range: -20°C to 110°C
- Moderate solvent resistance
- Autoclavable (121°C)
- Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
