4titude 190μm clear base imaging microplate, black frame. Optically Clear Tissue Culture Plates have been designed for high content screening (HCS) assays in drug development and related areas. They are also suitable for homogeneous assays, employing fluorescence intensity, FRET and TR-FRET where measurements are bottom-read. The high-quality optical base plate assures the necessary accuracy and consistency for automated high throughput systems, generating optimum signal-to-noise ratios. Using state-of-the-art manufacturing technology, we have developed a product which offers several key advantages to the end user.

Optically Clear Tissue Culture Plates are assembled using unique patented laser welding technology which reduces auto fluorescence and does not inhibit cell growth. Available with 190μm polystyrene base. Available TC treated: our advanced tissue-culture (TC) treatment method evenly coats each well for optimal cell adhesion properties for highest reproducibility between wells, plates and batches.

Key Features:

• Leak free
• Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and cyto-toxic
• Optimum signal-to-noise ratios
• Good cell adhesion
• Wicking and bubble formation eliminated
• SBS footprint
• Alphanumeric grid reference

4titude rigid polycarbonate frame, for use with Removable 8 Well PCR Tube Strips; for use on Roche LightCycler^® 480. 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 Semi-Skirted Frame, Roche Style for use with the Roche LightCycler^® 480
• Also available as a 96 Well Skirted Frame for universal use
• Frames can be purchased on their own or pre-loaded with Removable 8 Well PCR Tube Strips

4titude 96 Individual tubes in plate format, low profile, flat optical bottom, 0.1ml clear polypropylene tubes, black rigid polycarbonate frame, cut corner H1, working volume: <100μl, total well capacity: 180μl. 96 Well, fully skirted, low profile format with each tube inserted

4titude 96 Individual tubes in plate format, low profile, flat optical bottom, 0.1ml clear polypropylene tubes, black rigid polycarbonate frame, cut corner H1, working volume: <100μl, total well capacity: 180μl. 96 Well, fully skirted, low profile format with each tube inserted separately into the plate frame, allowing for selection and removal of individual tubes from the plate. Each tube clicks into place in the frame ensuring tubes are secure once inserted.

The Individual Access range includes PCR plates with optically clear flat bottom wells for microscopy applications. The Individual Access 96 Well Skirted Optical Bottom PCR Plates (next to their counterpart within our FrameStar^® range, 4ti-0970) are currently unique in the market, being suitable for use in both microscopy and PCR, for example, when single cell sorting is followed by molecular biology applications such as qPCR and sequencing.

Due to their flat bottoms and stackability, these plates are well suited for small sample volume storage (such as compound libraries), with no risk of damaging the seal of the plate below. Additionally, the small well volume enables excellent sample recovery. The rigid polycarbonate skirt of this design eliminates warping and distortion during PCR. Together with the SBS footprint, this makes the plate suitable for use with robotic systems, ideal for both small and high throughput labs. Empty frames are available for tubes to be transferred to. The frames can be re-used multiple times, depending on the application.

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
• Alphanumeric grid reference to aid well and sample identification
• Suitable for microscopy and small volume sample storage
• 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 still be separated after sealing
• 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
• Also available as a FrameStar plate (4ti-0970) with fixed wells
• 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
• Available barcoded upon request
• 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
