Video demonstrates microplate sealing and stacking
Porvair Sciences has a new online video that demonstrates how its TriSeal high throughput sealing station provides a compact, easy-to-use solution for automated microplate sealing and stacking
A new digital timer and temperature display further enhance the ease of producing reproducibly sealed microplates.
The Thermobond 2 combines ruggedness and ease of use with a new smart industrial design.
The Thermobond 2 requires only one operation of the reciprocating handle to apply heat to the surface of the film, creating a fine melt with the coating of the microplate being sealed.
No adhesives are used.
High sample integrity is maintained as no heat is transferred to the sample during sealing.
To access liquid samples after storage, the seal may be pierced and the sample simply removed with a pipette.
Interchangeable sample mounting blocks and spacer/locator plates enable a very wide range of microplates to be sealed from 384-well plates to deep well storage blocks and bioblocks. Request a free brochure from Porvair Sciences ...
