Adhesive Sealing Film, Polyester, 3.1 mil
The polyester films are a great general purpose seal; ideal for sample protection and elimination of well-to-well sample cross contamination. The acrylic adhesive offers a strong bond that seals tightly on polypropylene and polystyrene plates.
This seal is ideally suited for short term storage, Elisa assays, prevention of sample loss, and general lab usage.
The paper backing of this film is scored on both ends to allow for two handed (precise) placement on the plate.
For PCR applications see our standard PCR film or our Real Time PCR film.
For applications where accessing samples through the seal with pipet tips or a probe is required, see the pierceable aluminum (MID-PCR-200) film.

ASADHESIVEPOLSTER31
Adhesive Sealing Film, Aluminum, 1.4 mil
Soft and non-permeable, the 1.4 mil aluminum sealing foil offers optimum sealing for all PCR plates. Using a medical-grade acrylic adhesive, our foil seals are easily pierced with single or multi-channel pipettors and robotic probes. These soft foil seals, resist rolling back when removing the backing paper and seal tightly to both PCR and Deep Well Blocks.
Ideally suited for PCR and Cold Storage down to -80 °C. Exceptional adhesive properties and foil material durability yield virtually no sample evaporation or drying.

ASADHESEALFLALM14
Adhesive Sealing Film, Polyolefin, 2.8 mil
Certified free of RNase, DNase, Pyrogen, and nucleic-acid contamination.
Specifications
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.

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
For Use with White Microplates
BrightMax™ White, Light-reflecting, Vinyl Sealing 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 punch-out samples for filter plates (e.g. ELISPOT assays)
- Features a single split liner for easy application
Applications
- Luminescence
- Fluorescence
- Microscopy
- -40°C to +80°C
Thick Adhesive, Leaves No Residue Behind
eXTReme™ 2 Seal Extra Strong Sealing Film
Extra strong adhesive minimizes evaporation without residue eXTReme Seal features an extra-strong thick adhesive to minimize evaporation, yet removes easily without leaving residue on the plate.
