Porvair Sciences has released new literature describing its range of films and foils that enable high integrity heat sealing of microplates
The new range of sealing films and foils offer a convenient and effective method for sealing 24-, 48-, 96-, 384- and 1536-well microplates.
Sealing a microplate minimises evaporation and provides protection for samples during assay, storage, and shipment.
Fully compatible with almost all commercially available microplate heat sealers, Porvair's extensive range of thermal seals enable deep well, shallow well, PCR and assay plates as well as polystyrene tubes to be sealed with a specially prepared pierceable film or foil.
The range of six thermal sealing products includes a clear film for fluorometric and colorimetric assays, an aluminium foil for sample storage and an easy pierce aluminium backed polypropylene foil for PCR work.
The product range includes 25 metre length sample rolls for evaluation and testing up to 600metre rolls that provide a cost effective solutions for high volume microplate sealing.
Using only the highest quality seal materials the Porvair heat seal range minimises the chance of cross contamination should a sample come into contact with a film or foil.
