Product Description
Repeated access to sealed wells goes faster when tips and probes go straight through the seal without coring, clogging or picking up adhesive. This group combines pierceable sheet films for 96- and 384-well plates with adhesive roll stock for high-throughput automated sealers.
This listing is for Excel Scientific catalog number XP-384-50, the X-Pierce™ 384-Well Pierceable Sealing Film. X-Pierce has a pre-cut X over each well that reseals after access, Zone-Free has adhesive-free zones over every well, and EZ-Pierce is a 70 µm polyethylene film with acrylic adhesive. The 96-well sheet films are rated from -40°C to +90°C and the 384-well versions from -40°C to +40°C, for short-term processing and storage. The roll stock suits automated microplate sealers: AlumaSeal foil (80 mm x 100 m, -80°C to +120°C) and ThermalSeal RTS with a silicone adhesive (79 mm x 65 m, -80°C to +105°C). Add it to your LIGHT LABS order and keep your plates sealed and protected.
Key Features
- No Tip Fouling – X-Pierce pre-cut flaps and Zone-Free adhesive-free zones keep tips and probes from coring or picking up adhesive
- Reseals After Piercing – X-Pierce flaps close again to keep protecting samples between accesses
- Easy-Pierce Polyethylene – EZ-Pierce is a 70 µm inert, chemical-resistant film for single or multichannel pipettors and robotic probes
- Matched to Plate Density – Formats for both 96-well and 384-well plates, aligned for multichannel pipets and robotics
- Automation Roll Stock – AlumaSeal rolls seal about 830 plates and ThermalSeal RTS rolls about 540 plates on automated sealers
