Principle

96 well non-skirted PCR plate, vertically or horizontally perforated, standard profile, 0.2 ml wells, polypropylene, cut corner H12, working volume: <200 µl, total well capacity: 300 µl; tears easily into strips or part plates; universal cycler and sequencer compatibility.

All of the PCR plates are moulded from virgin polypropylene under ISO-certified cleanroom conditions in our UK-based production facility, and as such comply with the same stringent requirements as our FrameStar® range.

This plate is perforated under the same cleanroom conditions post-manufacture so it can be separated into part plates or individual strips of tubes.

The Tear-A-Way™ plate maintains all benefits of the 96 Well Non-Skirted PCR Plate, but adds additional flexibility.

Features

• Allows for the most flexible and efficient use of a PCR plate - no need to run half-empty plates, so reducing costs
• Plate is perforated to enable accurate tearing into 8-well or 12-well strips - no tricky cutting of plates with scissors, risking perforated wells, damaging sealing rings, and contamination
• Black grid reference on all strips - no sample identification errors
• Non-skirted plates - universal cycler and sequencer compatibility
• The Tear-A-Way™ 96/8 8-well version is easily divided into 24 and 48-well plates to fit a 24 or 48-well thermal cycler block
• The Tear-A-Way™ 96/12 12-well version perfectly suited for gradient cyclers
• Snaps into strips for lower throughput - cost effective
• White version available for superior qPCR performance
• RNase, DNase, Human Genomic DNA free
• Sealable with 4titude® PCR cap strips, Adhesive Seals and Heat Seals

The new 12-strip Tear-A-Way™ 96/12 plates allow you to make full use of your gradient PCR instruments. The temperature gradient is typically created along the horizontal direction of the block, thus 12-well strips or sections are ideal.
