Eliminate well-to-well contamination and crossover in sensitive ELISA/EIA assays where minimizing evaporation and preventing vapor loss are critical.
SealPlate Film
- Functional temperature range from -40°C to 120°C
- Perforated tabs can be removed or sealed around plate edge
- Can be used as secondary seal to cover films that have been pierced
- Available sterile and non-sterile
SealPlate® 50 µm thickness polyester films minimize evaporation, prevent spillage and contamination between wells, and provide a secure seal, not just a cover. Secure sealing of all wells eliminates “edge effects” in sensitive ELISA assays. SealPlate films can also be used with tissue-culture plates for short-term storage, incubation, and containment of biohazards. SealPlate films are non-pierceable. Each film measures 79.4 by 146.1mm.
Note: Completing application of sealing films by pressing with the accessory plate roller or sealing paddle assures a secure uniform seal around all wells.
SealPlate Ministrips
- Two tabs on each strip for easy application and removal
- Perforated tabs can be removed or sealed around plate edge
- Can be used as secondary seal to cover sealing films that have been pierced
- Apply to plates singly or two-at-a-time
- MiniStrips can be applied to plates singly or two-at-a-time.
SealPlate® MiniStrips™ sealing films are identical to SealPlate films above, but designed for sealing only one or two 8-well rows at a time on either strip-well or standard plates whenever rows must be selectively protected or accessed. Each MiniStrips film is 103.2 x 19.0 mm, including two positioning tabs. The long dimension with the tabs removed is 102.9mm. MiniStrips are supplied in sheets of four from which strips can be peeled individually or two-at-a-time for application to plates.
Individual MiniStrips are easily peeled from sheets of four. The new four-strip-sheet format facilitates extraction from the package, handling, and removal of backing paper before application as compared to the original single-strip configuration. Sterile product is packaged in tamper-evident bags of 200.
NOTE: Spacing does not permit simultaneous application of more than two strips.
SealPlate RollMate
SealPlate® RollMate™: An economical, efficient way to rapidly seal microplates; faster than applying single sheeted film.
Application: Ideal for ELISA, incubation and storage
Temperature Range: -40°C to +120°C
- Self-standing, non-slip supports hold pre-scored film roll securely in place for quick and easy dispensing
- Continuous backing liner can be torn off or fed directly into a waste basket for disposal
- Roll tension can be easily adjusted to user preference (e.g. loose, tight)
- SealPlate film minimizes evaporation, reduces cross-contamination and prevents spillage
- Eliminates the “edge effect”, excess evaporation in the outside wells, which can occur with other films and plate lids
- Useful as a simple cover to protect samples from external contamination, dust and debris
- 2.0mil rigid polyester film features good clarity and easy handling
- Single, writable end-tab for easy application and plate identification
- High integrity packaging prevents damage during transit; poly bag eliminates dust and particulate contamination
ValueSeal™
- The most economical film for general laboratory use
- General laboratory use, short-term storage, incubation and ELISA
- Temperature Range:
- -40°C to +120°C
- ValueSeal features smaller dimensions and a single non-perforated end-tab to provide a more cost-e?ective alternative to protect samples from evaporation, external contamination, dust and particulates.
- Provides a secure seal and is easy to remove
- Rigid polyester ?lm features good clarity and easy handling
- Can be used as a temporary seal while awaiting further processing
