Description
Product Details
We have now extended our FrameStar range to include PCR plates with optically clear flat bottom wells for microscopy applications. The FrameStar 96 Well Skirted Optical Bottom PCR Plates (next to their counterpart within our Individual Access range, 4ti-0970/RA) are currently unique in the market, being suitable for use in both microscopy and PCR.
Optical bottom plates are ideal for applications requiring single cell sorting followed by molecular biology techniques such as (q)PCR and sequencing. The flat bottoms enable excellent stackability, making these plates well suited for small sample volume storage such as compound libraries, with no risk of damaging the seal of the plate below. Additionally, the small well volume enables excellent sample recovery.
Key Features
Quality
- Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
- Stackable
Wells
- Ultra-smooth, uniform, thin-walled polypropylene wells for optimum PCR and real-time (RT-qPCR) results
- <0.1ml (100µl) working volume, 0.18ml (180µl) total well capacity
- Low profile wells, shorter than “standard” profile wells, to decrease the “dead space” between the heated lid of the thermal cycler and the sample in the well
- Eliminates condensation forming on the side wall of the tubes, preventing reduction in PCR volume and increasing the efficiency of the reaction
Frame
- Rigid polycarbonate frame for added mechanical stability
- Significantly reduced thermal expansion and sample evaporation for improved consistency in PCR results
- Improved seal integrity due to thermal stability of frame
- Alphanumeric grid reference to aid well and sample identification
Use
- Suitable for microscopy and small volume sample storage
- Recommended for low volume PCR
- Compatible with standard multichannel pipettes
- Ideal for use with robotic systems
Options
- Also available as an Individual Access plate (4ti-0970/RA) with individually detachable and sealable wells
- Available barcoded upon request; learn more about our barcoding options
