General description
ClearASeal Pierce™ is a thin polyester, optically clear polyester backed film, forming a pierceable seal to polypropylene, polyethylene, polystyrene and cyclic olefin copolymer (COC) plates. The optical clarity of this seal enables its use for sealing plates required for imaging use, including fluorescent detection methods such as qPCR and colorimetric assays. It forms a complete seal to a plate enabling moderately low and high temperature uses, including PCR when using a pressurized heated lid thermal cycler and demonstrates a moderate solvent resistance and can be utilized for short term compound storage. This seal is available as sheets, for use with manual and semi-automated sealers and Its pierceability renders it useful for automation and for use on needle, capillary and tip based liquid handling systems It is effective on the ABI®3730 capillary sequencer, removing the need for the use of expensive septa mats.
