Frequently Asked Questions
Are these plates compatible with ABI thermal cyclers?
Yes. The A24 single-notch design follows the ABI-style footprint, fitting common 384-well blocks on Applied Biosystems and similarly configured real-time and endpoint instruments.
What is the difference between the clear and white plates?
Clear plates suit general PCR and visual inspection, while white plates reflect emitted light to boost fluorescent signal in probe-based qPCR, improving sensitivity for low-copy targets.
What sealing options work with these plates?
Open wells accept adhesive sealing films and optical seals. Choose optically clear seals for fluorescence readout and pressure-sealing films for thermal cycling without evaporation.
Are the plates certified nuclease-free?
Plates are manufactured from virgin polypropylene and supplied DNase/RNase-free and non-sterile, making them suitable for sensitive nucleic acid amplification workflows.
