Use these hard-shell plates for PCR. The patented two-component design is specifically engineered to withstand the stresses of thermal cycling.

Additional benefits include:

• Superior stability and flatness allow precise positioning and robotic handling

• Sturdy plate design is ideal for heat sealing methods

• Warp-resistant feature provides durability during automation, high-speed centrifugation, and storage (even at –80°C) 

• User-readable bar code options for convenient sample tracking in high-throughput settings

• Black alphanumeric labeling for easy well identification

• Footprint and well spacing designed to match ANSI/SBS standard dimensions

• Composition helps prevent DNA binding

• Polypropylene resin allows superior well-to-well uniformity for reliable and reproducible real-time qPCR results

• Certified to be free of DNase, RNase, and human genomic DNA

• Maximum volume is up to 200 µl
