Plate features

• The plates can be broken up in both 8-strip vertical and 12-strip horizontal directions, resulting in individual strips, part strips, or even individual tubes, giving you the highest range of flexibility
  
• Breaking a plate is more accurate, more convenient, and safer than cutting it with scissors, as it avoids damaging the sealing rings and contamination of the wells
  
• Plates can be filled, sealed and separated for storage, processing or distribution
  
• Easy to break at any temperature
  
• The plate can be adapted to individual pipetting schemes without the need to waste empty wells
  
• Separated strips or tubes can be used for the positive control to avoid contamination of the samples
  
• Compatible with all instruments that fit non-skirted, low profile plates. NB: In some cases you may have to break off the end tabs for it to fit
  
• Low profile, 0.1 ml wells, <100 µl working volume, with a 200 µl total well capacity when used with sealing options
  
• Ultra-smooth, uniform, thin-walled polypropylene tubes for optimum PCR and real-time (RT, qPCR) results
  
• Compatible with standard multichannel pipettes
