Microplate Seals

Supplier: VWR International

These 77.5 µm thick polyester films provide secure sealing around every well, not just a cover, thus minimising evaporation, preventing spillage and well-to-well contamination, and eliminating 'edge effects' in sensitive ELISA assays.

Supplier: VWR International

Polyester 2×8 strip films are identical to polyester films in material and adhesive, but designed for sealing only one or two 8-well rows at a time on either strip-well plates or standard plates whenever rows must be selectively protected or accessed.

Supplier: VWR International

These heat resistant 74.9 µm thick films are designed for thermal cycling applications. Polypropylene films are not pierceable. For PCR applications, where piercing with pipette tips or robotic probes is required for product recovery, use aluminium foil films. For Real-Time PCR applications, where maximum optical clarity is required, use optically-clear polyester films.

Supplier: VWR International

These soft, non permeable 63.5 µm thick aluminium foils, with strong medical grade adhesive, eliminate the need for heat sealing devices or mats during thermal cycling.

Supplier: VWR International

Transparent polyester films with strong, non absorbing, non fluorescing, medical grade adhesive for superior performance in qPCR applications. Supplied non sterile.

Supplier: VWR International

A 139.7 µm thick hydrophobic porous film with medical-grade adhesive for tissue culture plates, bio-blocks, and 96-well plates where gas exchange is necessary for cell or bacterial growth. These rayon films minimise cross-contamination, spillage and evaporation. They allow uniform air and CO₂ exchange for all wells, unlike plate lids which favour exchange for wells near plate edges. Sterile product is packaged in tamper evident bags of 25.

Supplier: VWR International

These easily-pierceable 94.1 µm polyethylene films with acrylic adhesive allow direct sample recovery with single or multichannel pipettors and robotic probes.

Supplier: VWR International

With a polyethylene top layer and inert white polypropylene and acrylic adhesive sublayer, this easy-piercing sealing film allows direct sample recovery with single or multichannel pipettors and robotic probes.

Supplier: VWR International

Identical to polyester films above, but including a colour dot and white writing area on each end tab for plate identification.

Supplier: VWR International

Aluminium foils with biologically inert adhesive. These foils are easily pierced by manual or automated pipette tips, for sample recovery without generation of aerosols or cross-contamination.

Supplier: VWR International

These medium-density polyethylene films, 76µm thick with a 46µm thick adhesive layer, are designed for general-purpose microplate sealing and PCR.

Supplier: VWR International

Aluminium foils, 75.7 µm thick, for use with 96- or 384-well plates. Fit inside the rim of raised rim plates. These foils have one partial-width end tab. Available non sterile only.

Supplier: VWR International

These 106.7 µm thick vinyl films with 20 µm adhesive layer are designed for temporary protection of samples in 96-well plates from contamination and evaporation.

Supplier: VWR International

These films are 240 µm thick black vinyl with adhesive for use with 96-well, 384-well, and 1536-well black microplates. They fit within the edges of raised-rim plates and may be applied to either the plate top or bottom.

Supplier: VWR International

These films are 240 µm thick white vinyl with adhesive, for use with white microplates.

Supplier: VWR International

50 µm polyolefin films with 50 µm inert encapsulated silicone adhesive. Especially suited for qPCR, storage and protein crystallisation applications. The encapsulated silicone adhesive is non tacky until pressed against the sealing surface, at which time adhesive is released only in sealing areas to form the strongest available heat resistant seal around each well on the plate.
