Overview

Our FrameStar Roche Style plates are designed to achieve optimized assay conditions on the Roche LightCycler® 96 and 480 (with 96 well block). This particular style of plate is in a low profile 96-well format; perfect for reaction volumes of 10-100µl.

The wells are shorter than "standard" profile wells, which decrease the "dead space" between the heated lid of the thermal cycler and the sample in the well. This eliminates condensation forming on the side wall of the tubes, preventing reduction in PCR volume and increasing the efficiency of the reaction.

This is especially recommended for reaction volumes below 20µl. The extra white wells allow for increased sensitivity in fluorescent assays. The semi-skirted frame allows for labeling or barcoding.

Key Features

  • Quality
    • Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
  • Wells
    • Ultra-smooth, uniform, thin-walled polypropylene tubes for optimum PCR and real-time (RT-qPCR) results
    • <0.1ml (100µl) working volume, 0.2ml (200µl) total well capacity
  • Frame
    • Rigid polycarbonate frame for added mechanical stability
    • Significantly reduced thermal expansion and sample evaporation for improved consistency in PCR results
    • Improved seal integrity due to thermal stability of frame
    • Alphanumeric grid reference to aid well and sample identification
  • Use
    • Compatible with the Roche LightCycler® 96 and 480 (with 96 well block)
    • Recommended for low volume PCR
    • Compatible with standard multichannel pipettes
    • Ideal for use with robotic systems
  • Options
    • Plates are available with a clear polycarbonate frame and extra white wells for improved sensitivity when using fluorescent based assays
    • Combi packs available with qPCR Seal (4ti-0560)
    • Available barcoded upon request; learn more about our barcoding options
