Thermo Scientific™ Sealing Tape for 96-Well Plates

Thermo Scientific™ Microplate Sealing Tape is a convenient, pressure-sensitive sealing solution for 96-well and 384-well microplates, specifically designed for use during incubation steps in ELISA, protein assays, and other microplate-based procedures. This product ensures reliable sealing to minimize evaporation, contamination, and spillage during assays.

Key Features

1. Pressure-Sensitive Sealing
   • Quick and easy sealing by positioning the tape and applying gentle pressure.
2. Reusable
   • Sheets can reseal a plate up to 2–3 times during the same procedure without losing adhesion.
3. Individual Pre-Cut Sheets
   • Each sheet is supplied on its own peel-off backing for easy handling and application.
4. Durable and Inert
   • Made of polyester-based material with a thin layer of acrylic adhesive that ensures durability and chemical resistance.
5. Compatibility
   • Designed for standard 96-well and 384-well microplates.
6. Clear Transparency
   • Allows visual inspection of the wells without removing the tape.
7. Non-Sterile
   • Suitable for research use but not intended for sterile or diagnostic applications.

Applications

1. ELISA Assays
   • Seal plates during incubation to reduce evaporation and ensure consistent results.
2. Protein Assays
   • Prevent sample loss and contamination during mixing or heating steps.
3. Sample Storage
   • Short-term sealing for sample containment during laboratory procedures.
4. Cell-Based Assays
   • Secure the microplate during gentle shaking or mixing in cell-based applications.
5. PCR and Molecular Biology
   • Temporary sealing during non-critical steps where sterility is not required.
