Thermo Scientific™ Armadillo PCR Plate, 96-well, clear, semi-skirted

Description

Thermo Scientific ™ Armadillo™ 96-Well, Clear, Semi-Skirted PCR Plates are the ultimate in high performance PCR plastics. Combining the rigidity of a polycarbonate frame with thin walled polypropylene wells, the Armadillo plate provides superior thermal cycling performance under all conditions without warping.

The barcoded plates (Part numbers BC-2596, BC-3496, BC-2496, BC-3596) are designed for high-throughput, robotic PCR, and qPCR applications and feature a raised rim to improve seal integrity. They are available with both clear (BC-2596, BC-2496) and white (BC-3596, BC-3496) colored wells and with 128-industry standard barcoding.

 Highlights

• Optically clear skirt—Aids in visualization of liquids and improves stacking capabilities in automated handling systems
• ANSI:SBS footprint—With rigidity of polycarbonate skirt, the ANSI footprint ensures complete compatibility with robotic systems for high throughput applications
• Thermostable polycarbonate semi-skirted frame design—Warp-resistant thermal cycling and enhanced mechanical stability in robotic handling
• Thin walled U-bottom wells—Optimal heat transfer and maximum sample recovery
• Indented Alphanumeric Grid reference lettering—Integrated frame and well design for improved heat sealing
• Available in both clear and white colored wells—Ensures the highest level of sensitivity for all PCR/qPCR reactions
• Barcoding available—All plates can be provided with standard barcoding or barcoded to customer specifications for fully automated applications

Barcoding (Part numbers BC-2596, BC-3496, BC-2496, BC-3596)
The barcodes are the industry standard code 128. The label itself can withstand temperatures from -196°C up to 120°C to ensure that the barcodes stay on the plate throughout your entire workflow. It also has a special coating to virtually eliminate any ‘rubbing off' of the code during handling. The dual barcodes are located on the opposite numeric and opposite alpha sides of the plate.
