PCR films and foils
Films and foils provide your PCR plate with a tight seal, particularly when when heat sealing material is used. Optically clear films, especially the Masterclear® real-time PCR Film with its superior optical characteristics, are the ideal sealing material of choice for qPCR and other optical assays.
Hermetic sealing of microtest plates, especially at low reaction volumes
Certified free of human DNA, DNase, RNase and PCR Inhibitor*
Best protection against evaporation during PCR, especially with small reaction volumes
The Heat Sealing Foil and Heat Sealing Film each provide 100% evaporation prevention during PCR experiments and allow safe and easy sample storage. In automated procedures the aluminum-coated foil can be easily punctured with standard pipette tips. The Heat Sealing Film is transparent and allows monitoring of the sample in the plates. Heat Sealing Foil is removed by simply peeling it off, both Heat Sealing Films and Foils are best removed from microplates with the Foil Stripper (not shown).
