PCR/qPCR

MIDSCI can supply almost every needed product for PCR/qPCR: tubes, plates, strips, caps, taq, Mastermixes, dNPTs, dye and probe for qPCR, sealing film and much more.  If you are looking for any of these things, we can match almost all needs to all cyclers.  If you don’t find it easily contact us at tech@midsci.com and we will find it for you. 

96 or 384 we have it.  Non-Skirted, semi-skirted or full skirted, we have it.  0.1, 0.2, or 0.5 mL we have it.  A1, A12, H12, A24, P24 cuts, we have them.  Sybr© Green or probe alternative, we have it.  

Pro Tip: Colored plastics do not have any impact on DNA amplification.  But when setting up qPCR it is often recommended to use white plastics.  This will limit or prevent fluorescence refraction.  Light refraction can minimize sensitivity and consistency. 

Pro Tip 2: If you are seeing inconsistencies in PCR/qPCR try PR1MA Pipette Tips.  This will help optimize and reduce variance in the reactions.  Simple test, see the residual liquid left in tips?  This means some of the taq, dNTPs, sample, etc is left in the tip.  PR1MA tips help reduce that significantly and improve your consistency. 

Pro Tip 3: Seeing evaporation in the outer wells of a PCR/qPCR plate?  Sometimes it’s the plate, sometimes it the seal, and sometimes it’s the cycler.  Call us we have solutions.

Easy-to-pierce, Medical Grade Acrylic Adhesive

AlumaSeal® II™ Easy-to-pierce Aluminum Foil Seal

AlumaSeal® II™ is a soft non-permeable aluminum foil with a strong, medical-grade acrylic adhesive. Compared to other aluminum foils, AlumaSeal® II™  has less tendency to roll back on itself when removing the backing paper.
  • 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
Applications
  • PCR
  • Long-term storage
  • Light sensitive assays
  • Robotics
Temperature Range
  • -80°C to +120°C
Helpful Tips
  • End-tab removal before thermal cycling is highly recommended
  • Remove diagonally from a corner to prevent tearing

FoilSeal™


Extra thick aluminum foil minimizes shredding upon removal
 
FoilSeal features a specially formulated adhesive that provides an excellent seal to minimize evaporation, reduce cross-contamination and prevent spillage.

Application: PCR, light sensitive assays and robotics
Temperature Range: -20°C to +120°C

Universal fit for all plate types (e.g. flat-top, raised-rim and non-skirted); the smaller dimensions and rounded corners result in no plate overhang for robotics applications.

  • 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

Optically Clear, Pressure Activated, Non-tacky Silicone

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
Temperature Range
  • -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

  • Safely excise bands from gels
  • Avoid cross contamination
  • One-handed operation for quick and accurate gel cutting
  • Safer than using razor blades and won't scratch transilluminators

Cut gel with pipet tip on the end of a standard 1000µl pipettor. Gel piece is suspended in tip when pipettor is lifted from the gel. Expel the gel piece by pushing the pushbutton on the pipettor. Tip is ejected in normally using the ejector button.

Bullseye High Fidelity PCR Master Mix


The newly developed Bullseye HFL PCR Master Mix represents the highest fidelity for a PCR product. Bullseye's HFL PCR Master Mix has eight times higher fidelity when compared to Pfu, previously considered to be the golden standard for high fidelity PCR. This Master Mix also works well for large PCR fragments. 

The Bullseye HFL PCR Master Mix is in a 2X format and contains modified, high fidelity thermal stable DNA polymerases, in a pre-optimized PCR buffer. The amplified DNA will be blunt-ended. When using this master mix for most PCR experiments, only template, primers and H2O will be needed.

SPECIAL FEATURES & APPLICATIONS
  • High fidelity with robustness
  • Large fragment PCR
  • 2X master mix - makes PCR easy and consistent
  • For cloning, promoter study, RACE, DNA sequencing and more

ASADHESEALFLALM14
Adhesive Sealing Film, Polyolefin, 2.8 mil
These optically clear polyester films are ideally suited for Real Time PCR (qPCR). They feature an inert, ultra-clear, and strong encapsulated silicone adhesive that provides extraordinary performance in real-time PCR 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 and diminishes 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.

Certified free of RNase, DNase, Pyrogen, and nucleic-acid contamination.
