eXTReme™ Seal Extra Strong Sealing Film

eXTReme™ Seal features an extra-strong thick adhesive to minimize evaporation, yet removes easily without leaving residue on the plate.

Features chamfered corners to eliminate plate overhang for robotics applications and tight storage conditions.

• Certified DNase- & RNase- free
• Ideal for use with raised-rim and non-skirted PCR plates
• Available in a larger cut for flat-top semi-skirted and full-skirted PCR plates: eXTReme™ Seal, Large

Application

• PCR
• Robotics

Helpful Tips

• Selection of the proper film size will minimize evaporation
• The film should not overhang or ride up the wall of a raised-rim plate
• More complete coverage of skirted flat-top plates will reduce evaporation in the outer wells
• End-tab removal before thermal cycling is highly recommended

ILP Clear Zone™ and Indexed Sealing Film

• Pre-slit “x” wells allow for in-process access of wells without damage to film
• 2-end tabs and a white colored insert with 96 clear rings assist in film alignment
• Easy to peel 

Indexed Seal Pre-Slit Sealing Film

Clear, pre-slit, and printed wells; designed for in-process sample access.

Applications: Sample protection while processing, automation with pipette tips, and sample indexing

• Reduce pipetting errors with easy-to-read well indexing
• Ideal for protecting samples on the benchtop while working with the plate, especially for manual procedures
• Easy in-process access and well-indexed labeling 

Clear Zone™ Pre-Slit Sealing Film, 96 well PP

Clear with no adhesive over well areas and designed for in-process sample access with probes and reuse automation.

Applications: Sample protection while processing, autosamplers, automation with probes or needles

• Best choice for automation; Ideal for protecting samples while in process
• Adhesive-free well areas reduce potential contact with samples and the risk of fouling probes/needles

ILP Aluminum Sealing Film

Soft and impermeable aluminum sealing foils with medical grade acrylic adhesive.  Once applied, the seal adheres aggressively, forming a tight positive seal preventing evaporation of VOCs, sample loss in storage, drying, cross contamination, and reducing the risk of aerosols and pathogens venting.

• Suitable for sealing all standard PCR plates, micro plates, and deep well blocks
• Perfect for light sensitive samples
• Easily pierced with single or multi-channel pipettors and probes
• Withstands long term storage down to -80°C
• Single tabbed backing paper removes easily; aluminum sheet resists rolling back

ILP Polyester Sealing Film

Perfect for general sealing applications, prevention of cross-contamination, Elisa, incubation, and short-term storage. Our polyester films with acrylic adhesive are a great general-purpose seals, ideal for sample protection. The acrylic adhesive offers a strong bond that seals tightly on polypropylene and polystyrene plates.

The paper backing of this film is scored on both ends to allow for two-handed (precise) placement on the plate. MID-SF081-PE Films have writing tabs for clear identification.

ILP Polyolefin Sealing Film 

• Optical Seal Adhesive Sealing Film
• Polyolefin 2.8 mil Ultra-clear for qPCR
• 50 Films/Pack, 10 Packs/Case 

Incredible optical clarity, non-absorbing, and non-fluorescing properties of these films make them ideally suited for Real Time PCR (qPCR) and optical assay work. Featuring an inert, ultra-clear, and strong encapsulated silicone adhesive that provides extraordinary performance in demanding applications.

Encapsulated silicone greatly reduces the risk of sample contamination due to exposure to adhesive. Once the film is pressed onto the plate, the raised portion of the well penetrates the encapsulation, and a tight seal is formed on just that surface (not over the sample). This silicone seal adheres aggressively, preventing evaporation and lessening the possibility of “Edge Effect”.

The plasticized backing of this film is scored on both ends to allow for two-handed (precise) placement on the plate. Both film and adhesive maintain incredible clarity and are the choice for highly demanding manual and automated processes.
