SealPlate® ColorTab™ adhesive sealing films consist of 50 µm thickness clear polyester. They minimize evaporation, prevent spillage and contamination between wells, and provide a secure seal for ELISA, EIA, and similar assays. These unique sealing films include a color dot and white writing area on each end tab for plate ID labeling. End tabs with backing removed adhere to the ends of the plate and are perforated so they can b…

A 50 µm heat-resistant polypropylene sealing film with a 25 µm layer of acrylic adhesive designed for thermal cycling applications. (Not recommended for PCR plates with narrow or irregular sealing surfaces: ThermalSeal 2™, AlumaSeal®, ThermalSeal A™, or ThermalSeal RT™ series films are better in such instances.) Each sealing film measures 79.4 x 135.1 mm and offers sufficient sealing area for all PCR plates. Length between th…

These improved films for classic thermal cycling applications consist of a 50 µm polyester film with a 41 µm layer of acrylic adhesive. Compared to the original ThermalSeal® films (below), ThermalSeal 2™ films offer better adhesion, reduced evaporation, longer end tabs for easier handling, and less tendency to tear during removal from the plate. Each sealing film measures 79.4 x 139.7 mm and offers sufficient sealing area for…

ThermalSeal® MiniStripsTM sealing films are identical to ThermalSeal sealing films (above), but designed for sealing only one or two 8-well rows at a time on PCR plates or strip tubes. They are now supplied in convenient sheets of four. Each sealing film strip is 19.0 x 97.3 mm, including two removable positioning tabs. The long dimension with tabs removed is 76.2 mm. Each package of 200 contains 50 sheets of four sealing film…

ThermalSeal ATM sealing films are an advanced version of Excel Scientific's classic ThermalSeal® sealing films for PCR. ThermalSeal A films consist of 50 µm polyester film with a 41 µm layer of acrylic adhesive formulated for improved protection against evaporation and leakage during thermal cycling. Intended for non-real-time PCR applications, ThermalSeal A films are designed to fit inside the edge of raised-rim PCR plates an…

ThermalSeal RTTM sealing films combine an optically transparent polyester sealing film with a strong, ultra-smooth, non-absorbing, non-fluorescing medical-grade adhesive for superior performance in real-time PCR applications. In place of the customary paper backing, ThermalSeal RT sealing films have a plastic liner which is easily removed before use and contributes smoothness and extreme optical clarity to the adhesive. Dimen…

ThermalSeal RT2RRTM 50 µm polyester sealing sealing films for real-time PCR are sized to fit within the edges of raised-rim 96-well plates. The same consistent ultra-high optical clarity as Excel's ThermalSeal RTTM sealing films (above) makes possible more reproducible, reliable, and consistent DNA amplification measurements. An inert, strong, temperature-resistant adhesive assures reliable sealing around each well. Two end ta…

The encapsulated silicone adhesive is non-tacky until pressed against the sealing surface, at which time adhesive is released only in sealing areas to form the strongest available heat-resistant seal around each well on the plate. Adhesive on non-sealing areas of the film, such as directly over sample wells, remains encapsulated and inert. Excel ThermalSeal RTS films are sized to fit within the edges of raised-rim 96-well plat…

ThinSealTMpolyester sealing films are just 25 µm thick, clearer and marginally peirceable with single-channel pipettes for sample recovery. ThinSeal sealing film dimensions are 79.4 x 141.0 mm.Features:Functional temperature range from -40°C to +120°CAvailable sterile and non-sterile
