Convenient, Easy-to-Use Roll format

SealPlate® RollMate™ Pre-scored Film in a Convenient, Easy to Use Roll Format


Pre-scored film on a roll is a more economical and efficient alternative to rapidly seal microplates or racked test tubes; faster than applying single sheeted film. Self-standing, non-slip supports hold the pre-scored film roll securely in place for quick and easy bench-top dispensement. The roll unwind tension can be easily adjusted to user preference. Continuous backing liner can be torn off or fed directly into a waste basket for disposal.
  • Economical
  • Quicker, more efficient sealing
  • Provides a secure seal and is easy to remove
  • Rigid polyester film features good clarity and easy handling
  • Can be used as a temporary seal while awaiting further processing
Applications
  • General laboratory use
  • Short-term storage
  • Incubation
  • ELISA
Temperature Range
  • -40°C to +120°C

EZcap™FoilStrips


An economical and more user-friendly alternative to PCR strip caps; no sore thumbs and fingers guaranteed!

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

Precision cut to a smaller dimension for sealing one PCR 8-tube strip or a single row of a 96-well PCR or deep-well storage plate whenever rows must be
selectively protected or accessed. FoilStrips remove easily with no splash back as can occur with strip-caps.

  • Certified DNase- & RNase- free
  • Each sheet contains 6 strips on a continuous liner for ease of use
  • Pierceable with a pipet tip or robotic probe for direct sample recovery
  • The conformable nature of foil allows for the visual verification of the seal’s security around each well
  • 2.0mil aluminum foil removes easily without tearing
 
Helpful Tips:

  • A non-locking workstation is recommended for sample prep (e.g. 96-well round-boom plate)
  • Removal of the end-tabs at the perforations is recommended before cycling
  • A final sealing step is highly recommended in the thermal cycler because 8-tube strips flex during handling
  • Do not fold foil around sides of tubes

AlumaSeal® CS™


With a 50 µm layer of acrylic adhesive that withstands cold storage at temperatures to -80 °C.

Unlike other sealing films in the AlumaSeal group, AlumaSeal CS sealing films are not recommended for PCR or thermocycling. A single non-perforated end tab simplifies application. Simply hold the tab and strip the backing from the body of the sealing film as it lays on the plate to avoid curling. Dimensions are 82.6 by 132.6 mm, including the single 9.5 mm end tab. AlumaSeal CS sealing films are certified DNase-, RNase-, and nucleic-acid-free.

  • Specially formulated for cold storage to -80 °C
  • Excellent barrier properties to retard evaporation
  • Easily pierceable with pipet tips or robotic probes for sample recovery
 
*Completing application of AlumaSeal CS sealing films by pressing with the accessory plate roller assures a secure uniform seal around all wells.

FoilSeal™ RollMate™ Dispenser +1 Roll of FoilSeal™ Film, 500 Pre-Scored Sheets

Pre-scored film on a roll is a more economical and efficient alternative to rapidly seal microplates; faster than applying single sheeted film. Self-standing, non-slip supports hold the pre-scored film roll securely in place for quick and easy bench-top dispensement. The roll unwind tension can be easily adjusted to user preference. Continuous backing liner can be torn off or fed directly into a wastebasket for disposal.
  • Certified DNase- & RNase- free
  • Pierceable with a pipet tip or robotic probe for direct sample recovery
  • 2.0mil aluminum foil removes easily without tearing
  • The conformable nature of foil allows for the visual verification of the seal’s security around each well
  • Not recommended for long-term cold storage
Applications
  • PCR
  • Light sensitive assays
  • Short-term storage
  • Robotics
Temperature Range
  • -20°C to +120°C
Helpful Tips
  • End-tab removal before thermal cycling is highly recommended
  • Remove diagonally from a corner to prevent tearing

Soft, Extra Thick, Conformable Adhesive

ThermalSeal® 2™ and ThermalSeal® Advanced Sealing Film

ThermalSeal® 2™ and ThermalSeal® Advanced feature a soft, extra thick, conformable adhesive that forms a very strong seal around raised wells to minimize evaporation and cross-contamination.
  • Certified DNase- & RNase- free
  • Ideal for use with flat-top, semi-skirted and full-skirted PCR plates
  • Compatible with hard-shell dual component (e.g. polycarbonate/polypropylene) PCR plates
  • Large cut allows for easier positioning of the film to the plate via edge of plate alignment vs. centering
  • Available in a smaller cut for raised-rim and non-skirted PCR plates: ThermalSeal® Advanced
Application
  • PCR
Temperature Range
  • -40°C to +120°C
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

Zone-Free™


Zone-Free is a multilayer film consisting of a top pierceable clear polyethylene film and a white polypropylene sublayer with 96 circular areas void of adhesive.

Application: Short-term storage and robotics
Temperature Range: -40°C to +90°C

The white sublayer aids in the alignment of the film to the plate; alignment of opposing corner wells ensures that all 96 wells will be properly aligned. The adhesive-free zones are 9mm on center to facilitate multi-channel pipetting without adhesive fouling of pipet tips or robotic probes.

  • Pierceable
  • Offers excellent chemical resistance
  • Samples have minimal contact with adhesive due to the adhesive-free zones
An Easier to Remove Film

ThermalSeal® An Easier to Remove Sealing Film

ThermalSeal® features a moderate strength adhesive for ease of removal.

  • Certified DNase- & RNase- free
  • Only recommended for structurally rigid polypropylene PCR plates that don’t warp
  • A less rigid polypropylene film that minimizes aerosols upon removal
  • Features good chemical resistance
Application
  • PCR
  • General storage
Temperature Range
  •  -40°C to +120°C

For Re-sealability and Easy Access Without Pipet Tip Coring

X-Pierce™ Sealing Films for Re-sealability and Easy Access Without Pipet Tip Coring or Adhesive Fouling

X-Pierce film is designed for short-term processing and storage of samples that require multiple access to wells by pipet tips or robotic probes.

A pre-cut “X” over each well creates bendable flaps that provide sample access without coring or adhesive fouling of tips or probes. Ideal for COVID-19 sample collection in deep-well plates using swabs.

  • Pierceable
  • Printed circles aid in the alignment of the film to the plate
  • Printed alphanumerics identify each well of a 96-well plate
  • Reseals after piercing for continued sample protection

Helpful Tips

  • To help position the film to the plate, align wells A-1 and H-12

Applications

  • Short-term processing and storage at ambient temperatures
  • Robotics

Temperature Range

  • -40°C to +90°C

AeraSeal™ SealMate™ Rolls for Fast and Efficient Microplate Sealing
