Adhesive Film Seals protect microplates

A Porvair Sciences product story
Edited by the Laboratorytalk editorial team Feb 23, 2009

Porvair Sciences has introduced Pattern Adhesive Films, a range of high-integrity seals for 96- and 384-well microplates.

The new films have adhesives printed in a pattern that matches the shape of the microplate wells.

This prevents adhesives from coming into contact with samples or solvent.

Unlike traditional adhesive seals, piercing a Pattern Adhesive Film with a single or multichannel pipettor or robotic probe does not risk contaminating samples with residual adhesive.

Adhesive Pattern Films are made from 50um-thick PTFE film.

They are tough yet easily pierced and offer excellent optical-reading properties.

Adhesive Pattern Films are versatile and offer secure sample-protection from -80C to +120C.

Patterns exactly fit 96-round, 96-square and 384-square well plates.

For long-term storage applications, durable 100um polypropylene adhesive pattern films are available in the same formats.
