Sealing foils for PCR plates - low strength

Mehr Lesen

Product information "Sealing foils for PCR plates - low strength"

Clear, strongly adhesive sealing foils to peel off again. Applicable, e.g. for PCR plates / qPCR plates or other optical applications, e.g. fluorescence or colorimetric measurements. The film is not intended to be pierced with a pipette tip. These films are suitable for all plate types in 96-well format.

- The sealing foils are made of a durable, transparent polyester film with a coating of strong adhesive.
- The seals prevent cross over of individual samples and at the same time reliably prevention from evaporating.
- The seals are suitable for normal PCR, and also for qPCR.
- The seals can be used for PCR as well as for the storage of important samples.

Removal: features adhesive-free end tabs for easy removal, will not leave a sticky residue on the plate surface following removal.

FAQs
Yes, the used plates and foils could influence the assay performance according to several scientific studies (e.g. Reiter and Pfaffl 2008: Effects of Plate Position, Plate Type and Sealing Systems on Real-Time PCR Results, Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 22:3, 824-828, DOI: 10.1080/13102818.2008.10817561).

In general, white qPCR plates (e.g. Genaxxon’s I2017) have a lower light scattering and thus a higher signal strength than transparent qPCR plates (e.g. Genaxxon’s I2004, I2010, I2031). If you have a weakly expressed target or a only small amounts of sample material, we recommend using a white qPCR plate.
Beside this, it is essential to use optically clear foils for your qPCR. We do not recommend using “normal” PCR foils as adhesive residues and transparency differences in the material may lead to inhomogeneity during your qPCR assay. 
Genaxxon offers different qPCR foils: a strongly adhesive foil (I2012) that securely seal the plate immediately, and a pressure-sensitive foil (I2248) that adheres to the plate by applying strong pressure.

qPCR adhesive plate seals

The Genaxxon qPCR adhesive seals are made of a optically clear adhesive film, with a pressure activated clue. The film is peelable and thus perfectly suitable for qPCR and other imaging techniques including crystallization applications. The adhesive is released after pressure on the surface. - Optically clear seal specifically developed for optical applications, particularly qPCR- It is non sticky when removed from the packaging; this aids handling when wearing gloves- The adhesive is contained within small capsules, allowing light to pass through to ensure the optical clarity of the seal- Seal integrity range: -40 °C to 110 °C- Free from DNase, RNase, and human genomic DNA When the seal is in position, pressure can be applied to burst the capsules, releasing a strong adhesive only where the seal touches the raised well rims of the plate - the rest of the seal area above the wells remains optically clear
