The thin-wall construction promotes rapid thermal equilibration across standard 96-well thermocycler block positions, while the enhanced flexibility of PPC versus standard polypropylene reduces the risk of well cracking during high-speed cycling and makes clean individual tube separation straightforward. Lot-to-lot dimensional consistency ensures a reliable fit run after run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Number (MPN)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e214-3456-N80\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVolume per Well\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.2 mL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8-Tube Strip\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWall Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThin-Wall\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolypropylene Copolymer (PPC)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAmber\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSterility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNon-Sterile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePack Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e125\/Bag\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible Block Format\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard 96-Well 0.2 mL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBPA \/ Phthalate Free\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePCR amplification and endpoint PCR in standard 96-well thermocycler blocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuantitative PCR (qPCR) where consistent well geometry and wall thickness are critical for fluorescence uniformity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) with RNA templates and enzyme mastermix reagent matrices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMolecular diagnostic workflows at CAP-, CLIA-, and ISO 15189-accredited laboratories requiring full lot traceability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApplications where individual tube separation from the strip is required mid-workflow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChemical Resistance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eReagent \/ Condition\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAqueous buffers \/ PCR reaction mix\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExcellent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDilute acids\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExcellent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDilute bases\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExcellent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMethanol\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIsopropanol\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAcetonitrile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAromatic \/ chlorinated solvents\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot recommended — verify before use\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eQuality \u0026amp; Procurement\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in USA at Caplugs® Evergreen's ISO-certified facilities, these strips are produced from virgin-grade, BPA-free, phthalate-free PPC resin.
