Product Description
Seal round-well plates securely, then wash and reuse the same mat run after run. These 96-well silicone mats press into each well with individual plugs, controlling evaporation and aerosols during incubation, shaking and storage. Pre-slit and pierceable versions let pipette tips pass through without lifting the mat.
