The thin-wall construction promotes rapid thermal equilibration across standard 96-well thermocycler block positions, while the PPC formulation offers enhanced flexibility compared with standard polypropylene, reducing the risk of well cracking during thermocycler runs and allowing clean individual tube separation from the strip.
