The QuickSeal Applicator System includes a re-usable applicator and two rolls of perforated film. Cost effective replacement rolls are sold separately. The applicator facilitates the quick and easy dispensing of film from a roll allowing microplates to be sealed three times faster than using sheeted films. The film is ideal for ELISA assays, incubation and general use in order to minimize evaporation, reduce cross-contamination and prevent spillage. QuickSeal film rolls are environmentally friendly since there is no protective backing paper to remove and discard.
The re-usable polypropylene applicator protects the sealing film from dust and contaminants and can be stood on end when not in use to minimize space. Each sheet is separated by an adhesive free, color-coded band which allows the user to pull the next sheet without touching the adhesive. Once the film is adhered to the plate, the seal can be perforated from the roll by squeezing the dispenser, in order to prevent the release of additional sheets, and moving it sideways to initiate separation of the sheet from the roll. The smooth lower surface or back-side of the applicator can be used to seal the film to the plate. Replacement rolls can be easily installed by releasing the locking clasps to open the applicator.
