Thermo Fisher, 4412614, Septa for 96-Well Plates, for 3500/SeqStudio™ Flex

Septa for 96-Well Plates, for 3500/SeqStudio™ Flex is designed for sealing sample plates used on Applied Biosystems 3500 and SeqStudio Flex series genetic analyzers. The septa plate matches the 96-well format and creates a pierceable cover over loaded samples while allowing the capillary-electrophoresis system to access wells during injection. This package contains 20 septa and is intended as a single-use consumable for routine sequencing and fragment-analysis workflows. The septa are validated for the 3500 and SeqStudio Flex platforms, helping maintain the physical interface between the sample plate and the instrument while reducing evaporation and accidental contamination during handling. The product ships at room temperature and can be stored at room temperature until use. The 96-well format is designed to align with the corresponding Applied Biosystems sample plates used by these genetic analyzers. Because repeated puncture can affect the seal, the recommended practice is to use a fresh septa plate for each run rather than reusing the same component across multiple instrument cycles. This consumable supports consistent plate handling in capillary-electrophoresis workflows without adding liquid reagents to the analysis. The septa also provide a consistent puncture interface for the instrument’s capillary array while the remaining wells stay covered. This makes the component part of the sample-loading consumable system rather than a general-purpose adhesive plate seal or heat-sealing film.
