| 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

It was developed for PCR and other high temperature applications due to its effectiveness in 4titude pierceable adhesive aluminum foil, strong adhesive, peelable; suitable for high temperature applications This aluminum foil seal has a strong acrylic adhesive which produces a seal of high integrity. It was developed for PCR and other high temperature applications due to its effectiveness in preventing sample evaporation. The PCR Foil Seal is pierceable; when pierced, the foil tears in an irregular manner which prevents the formation of a vacuum. It also has perforated end tabs for easy application and removal by peeling. For all adhesive seals, the best sealing results are achieved using the hand held Adhesive Seal Roller (4ti-0502). Key Features: - Pierceable
- Peelable
- Seal integrity range: -40°C to 120°C
- Free from DNase, RNase, and human genomic DNA
- Applications: PCR, incubation, storage
- Suitable for cutting to fit part plates
- Sheet format: 130 x 80mm, to fit all standard SBS footprint PCR and qPCR plates, microplates, assay and storage plates

Read More | 4titude peelable heat sealing foil; suitable for low temperature storage, high temperature uses and PCR Heat sealing offers a 100% effective method of plate sealing, for complete seal integrity, as well as being quick and cost effective. Our Peel Heat Seal is a laminate seal compatible with 4titude peelable heat sealing foil; suitable for low temperature storage, high temperature uses and PCR Heat sealing offers a 100% effective method of plate sealing, for complete seal integrity, as well as being quick and cost effective. Our Peel Heat Seal is a laminate seal compatible with polypropylene plates. It can be removed from polypropylene plates by peeling, even with a plate which has been removed directly from -80°C storage. Peel Heat Seal forms a complete seal to a plate enabling very low temperature uses, including very low temperature storage, and high temperature uses, such as PCR (when used with a pressurized heated lid). The seal demonstrates moderate solvent resistance and can be utilized for short term compound storage at room temperature. 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. Key Features: - Peelable from polypropylene and COC plates
- Seal integrity range: -80°C to 90°C (110°C when used with pressurized heated lid)
- Good solvent resistance including DMSO
- Autoclavable (121°C)
- Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
- Suitable for short term room temperature storage
- Suitable for very low temperature storage
- 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
- Roll format: available in a variety of roll dimensions, to suit your choice of automatic heat sealing equipment
- Non-sterile as standard; sterilization available upon request

Our Universal Peel Heat Seal 4titude peelable heat sealing foil with wide material compatibility; suitable for low temperature storage, high temperature uses and PCR Heat sealing offers a 100% effective method of plate sealing, for complete seal integrity, as well as being quick and cost effective. Our Universal Peel Heat Seal is a laminate seal compatible with PP, PE, PS, COC and PC plates, providing the highest flexibility in plate material choice. Sample access is possible by peeling from the compatible materials and also by piercing the seal with needles, but not with plastic tips. It is resealable by applying another Universal Peel Heat Seal directly on top of a previously pierced seal. Universal Peel Heat Seal forms a complete seal to a plate enabling low temperature uses as well as high temperature uses, such as PCR (when used with a pressurized heated lid). The seal demonstrates moderate solvent resistance. Use of Universal Peel Heat Seal makes roll changes unnecessary even for customers using different microplate materials, because with minor adjustments of sealing parameters all common microplate materials can be sealed to. 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. Key Features: - Pierceable with needle, but not with standard pipette tips
