ActionsSealPlate® SealMate™ Rolls
The SealMate SealPlate Starter Kit features a re-usable dispenser and two rolls of perforated film.
The dispenser facilitates the quick and easy dispensing of film from a roll allowing microplates to be sealed three times faster than using sheeted films. Cost-effective replacement rolls are sold separately. Ideal for use under the hood; the SealMate dispenser minimizes film contamination.
- Environmentally friendly; no paper liner to remove and discard; utilizes approximately 72% less material than SealPlate sheeted film
- Each sheet is separated by an adhesive-free, perforated, color-coded green band
- The smooth lower surface of the dispenser can be used to seal the film to the plate
- Dispenser protects unused seals from contamination
- Lower support prop prevents dispensing bill from contacting surfaces to prevent contamination
- Replacement rolls can be easily installed by releasing the locking clasps on the dispenser
- General laboratory use
- Short-term storage
- Incubation
- ELISA
- -40°C to +120°C
General Purpose Sealing Film For a More Secure Seal to Minimize Evaporation
General Purpose polypropylene films offer superior barrier properties to minimize evaporation and prevent well-to-well contamination. Ideal for use with polypropylene plates.- Certified DNase- & RNase- free
- Features good chemical resistance
- Provides a very secure seal to minimize evaporation, but is slightly harder to remove than SealPlate films
- Less rigid polypropylene film reduces aerosols upon removal
- Specially formulated adhesive minimizes plate residue
- Can be used as a temporary seal while awaiting further processing
- General laboratory use
- Short-term storage
- Incubation
- ELISA
- -40°C to +120°C
SealPlate® Sealing Film - The Industry Standard for Sample Protection
SealPlate® minimizes evaporation, prevents well-to-well contamination and spillage. Eliminates the “edge effect” which can occur with plate lids (e.g. greater evaporation in the outside plate wells).
- Provides a secure seal and is easy to remove
- Rigid polyester film features good clarity and easy handling
- Can be used as a temporary economical seal while awaiting further processing
- Features two end-tabs with perforations
Applications
- General laboratory use
- Short-term storage
- Incubation
- ELISA
- -40°C to +120°C
Temperature Range: -20°C to +120°C
Product Info
- Features chamfered corners to eliminate plate overhang for robotics applications and tight storage conditions.
- Certified DNase- & RNase- free
- Next-generation adhesive formula provides better than-ever sample protection with improved evaporation rates
- Standard cut is ideal for use with raised-rim and non-skirted PCR plates
- Large cut is designed for greater plate coverage and easier positioning of the film to the plate
- Large cut is recommended for use with flat-top, semi skirted and full-skirted PCR plates as well as deep well plates
- NOT recommended for qPCR
AlumaSeal® II™ Easy-to-pierce Aluminum Foil Seal
- Certified DNase- & RNase- free
- Excellent chemical resistance (e.g. DMSO)
- Easily pierceable with single or multichannel pipettors and robotic probes
- 1.4mil conformable aluminum foil allows visual verification of the seal’s security around each well
- PCR
- Long-term storage
- Light sensitive assays
- Robotics
- -80°C to +120°C
- End-tab removal before thermal cycling is highly recommended
- Remove diagonally from a corner to prevent tearing
FoilSeal™
- Certified DNase- & RNase- free
- Pierceable with a pipet tip or robotic probe for direct sample recovery
- 2.0mil aluminum foil removes easily without shredding or tearing
- The conformable nature of foil allows for the visual verification of the seal’s security around each well
- Not recommended for long-term storage
- Remove diagonally from a corner to prevent tearing
ThermalSeal® RTS™ Optically Clear, Pressure Activated, Non-tacky Silicone Adhesive
The silicone adhesive is non-tacky until pressure is applied to the sealing surface which then creates a secure bond around the wells and perimeter of the plate. Also ideal for dry samples (e.g. soil, seeds, insects, etc.) because the non-activated adhesive above the wells remains non-tacky. A roller or sealing paddle is highly recommended for use with this product to ensure consistent and adequate pressure is applied during the sealing process.
- Provides an extremely strong seal to minimize evaporation
- Certified DNase- & RNase- free
- Chemically resistant to DMSO, acetonitrile, and methanol
- Ideal for use with flat-top, raised-rim and non-skirted PCR plates
- High optical clarity and low auto-fluorescence
- Available in roll format for automation: ThermalSeal® RTS™ Roll-Seal
- A complimentary sealing paddle is included in each box
Applications
- qPCR
- Long-term storage
- Protein crystallography
- HPLC
- -80°C to +105°C
Helpful Tips
- Sufficient pressure must be applied to activate the silicone adhesive
- Multiple swipes of the sealing paddle in both directions is highly recommended
- A 10 minute or greater wait period before thermal cycling increases the film-to-plate bond
