AccuSeal Semi Automated Plate Sealers from MIDSCI are engineered and constructed by Labnet International, Inc to maximize PCR, assay and storage applications with a user friendly panel and automated sealing options.

Great emphasis has been placed on incorporating a wide range of standard heights to deep well microplates with appropriate adaptors to efficiently fit the plates for consistent temperature regulation. The AccuSeal sealer is optimized for simple digital control and operation, user-friendly versatility and convenience as well as safety.

Controls and Operation:

• Intuitive layout permits optimal sealing time, temperature and settings
• Includes a "No Heat" setting for pressure sealing applications

Versatility and Convenience:

• Adaptors specific for a PCR plate or an assay plate accommodates a variety of fits
• Automatically adjusts heat for different height plates
• Provides uniform pressure for a quality seal with special non-stick coating to prevent messy cleanup.

Safety:

• Motorized drawer features safety switches and prevents injury to the user.

AeraSeal™ SealMate™ Rolls for Fast and Efficient Microplate Sealing

AlumaSeal® Easy-to-pierce Aluminum Foil Seal for Direct Sample Recovery
 
AlumaSeal® 384 provides a secure seal for 384-well plates to minimize evaporation, reduce cross-contamination and prevent spillage.

AlumaSeal® 96 provides a secure seal for 96-well raised-rim and non-skirted PCR plates to minimize evaporation, reduce cross-contamination and prevent spillage. 

• Certified DNase- & RNase- free
• Ideal for use with 384-well and deep-well plates (or select AlumaSeal® 96™ for smaller cut for raised-rim and non-skirted PCR plates.)
• Features one end-tab with no perforation
• Pierceable with a pipet tip or robotic probe for direct sample recovery
• Large cut allows for easier positioning of the foil to the plate via edge of plate alignment vs. centering
• Available in roll format for automation: AlumaSeal® Roll-Seal

• 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
• 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

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

BrightMax™ | White, Light-reflecting, Vinyl Film

Designed for use with white microplates.

• The light reflective properties on clear-bottom plates maximize the sensitivity of bioluminescence and chemiluminescence assays in bottom-reading luminometers
• Maximizes intensity and signal-to-noise ratios in luminescence assays
• May be used as a backing matrix for microscopy of punchout samples for filter plates (e.g. ELISPOT assays)
• Features a single split liner for easy application

Application: Luminescence, fluorescence and microscopy
Temperature Range: -40°C to +80°C

Due to supply constraints 100-SEAL-PLT, STR-SEAL-PLT, XTR-100 and XTR-LG-100 are out of stock.


STR-SEAL-PLT alternative is GPS-PP-100.

PP-100 substrate is polypropylene instead of polyester for the STR-SEAL-PLT.  GPS-PP-100 is designed for the same application – ELISA/Incubation/General Storage.

100-SEAL-PLT alternative is TTS-100.

XTR-100 and XTR-LG-100 alternatives are XTR2-100 & XTR2-LG-100.
 

ELISA, Incubation, and Short Term Incubation Sealing Films

All films on this page are designed for ELISA, Incubation, and Short Term Incubation Sealing Films. If you are looking for something specific please consult our selection guides by attribute or application on this page. All films are certified DNase- & RNase-Free.

Specific film descriptions:

1x8 MiniStrips (GP-CS1X8-400 and GPS-CS1X8-400) are less expensive than full-size sheets when using only a partial plate. Designed for use with either 1x8 strip-well ELISA plates or standard 96-well plates where rows must be selectively protected or accessed. Ideal for COVID-19 testing to seal a row of 8 wells after swabs are deposited into a deep-well plate.

General Purpose (GP-PP-100 and GPS-PP-100) polypropylene lms oer superior barrier properties to minimize evaporation and prevent well-to-well contamination. Ideal for use with polypropylene plates.

Pre-scored lm (SP2-RL-500) on a roll is a more economical and ecient alternative to rapidly seal microplates or racked test tubes; faster than applying single sheeted lm. Self-standing, non-slip supports hold the pre-scored lm 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 o or fed directly into a waste basket for disposal.

The SealMate SealPlate Starter Kit (SM-KIT-SP and replacement rolls) features a re-usable dispenser and two rolls of perforated lm. The dispenser facilitates the quick and easy dispensing of lm from a roll allowing microplates to be sealed three times faster than using sheeted lms. Cost-eective replacement rolls are sold separately. Ideal for use under the hood; the SealMate dispenser minimizes lm contamination.

SealPla te (100-SEAL-PLT and STR-SEAL-PLT) minimizes evaporation, prevents well-to-well contamination and spillage. Eliminates the edge eect which can occur with plate lids (e.g. greater evaporation in the outside plate wells).

SealPlate Color Tabs (SP-IDx-100) Each end-tab features a colored dot and white writing area. An inscribed color-coded end-tab can be removed and pasted into a laboratory notebook while the other remains on the plate for identication. The lm sheet can be removed from the plate without disturbing the identication label due to the nely perforated end-tabs. Choose from 5 dierent individual colors or the assortment pack.

SealPlate 2x8 MiniStrips (SP-2X8-50 and SPS-2X8-50) are less expensive than full-size sheets when using only a partial plate. Designed for use with either 1x8 strip- well ELISA plates or standard 96-well plates where rows must be selectively protected or accessed.

ThinSeal (100-THIN-PLT and STR-THIN-PLT) minimizes evaporation, prevents well-to-well contamination and spillage.

ValueSeal (SP-VS-100) features smaller dimensions and a single non-perforated end-tab to provide a more cost-eective alternative to protect samples from evaporation, external contamination, dust and particulates.
