Product Details

Key Features

Quality
  • Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
  • Stackable
Wells
  • Ultra-smooth, uniform, thin-walled polypropylene tubes for optimum PCR and real-time (RT-qPCR) results
  • <0.1ml (100µl) working volume, 0.2ml (200µl) total well capacity
  • Low profile wells, shorter than “standard” profile wells, to decrease the “dead space” between the heated lid of the thermal cycler and the sample in the well
  • Eliminates condensation forming on the side wall of the tubes, preventing reduction in PCR volume and increasing the efficiency of the reaction
Frame
  • Rigid polycarbonate frame for added mechanical stability
  • Significantly reduced thermal expansion and sample evaporation for improved consistency in PCR results
  • Improved seal integrity due to thermal stability of frame
  • Alphanumeric grid reference to aid well and sample identification
Use
  • Compatible with ABI® Fast block thermal cyclers
  • Recommended for low volume PCR
  • Compatible with standard multichannel pipettes
  • Ideal for use with robotic systems
Options
  • Standard plate comes with clear polypropylene wells with a clear polypropylene frame
  • Also available with white wells for optimum signal-to-noise ratio when using fluorescent based assays
  • Also available as a clear frame with frosted wells for use with ABI®/LifeTechnologies® qPCR instruments
  • Combi packs available (for 4ti-0910/C) with Optically Clear Windowed qPCR Seal (4ti-0565)
  • Available barcoded upon request; learn more about our barcoding options
