Microplate Heat Seals

All consumables are not created equal

When it comes to microplate seals there are dozens if not hundreds of varieties with a whole host of different physical properties, chemical properties, resistances, solvent susceptibilities and optical properties.

Of course not all protocols require these extremes, but having the right consumable available for each method is one of the cornerstones of the modern laboratory.

Without a comprehensive range of seals you might find yourself limited in what you are able to select for your work – perhaps you are handling a sample with an extreme pH, or one which requires storage at very low temperature, or indeed heating to a much higher one (like PCR).

Microplates can also be constructed from a variety of materials, such as polypropylene, polyethylene, polystyrene or COC.

Each material has its own unique properties which must be taken into consideration – for example when sealing two microplates made of different materials using the same type of seal, one may give a perfect seal whilst the other may be of poor quality, or indeed not seal at all.
