Click-On(TM) Cap strip

Tube support grid, make your own plate

Tube support grid holds plates, strips or individual tubes. The tube support grids are available in two formats (regular and wide) and in a range of colors, are alphanumerically marked and have knobs to fix EU tubes, strips and plates. Once the tube strips or plates are positioned, and after pipetting the required reagents, the Tube Support Grid is used as a carrier which can be placed in the thermal cycler, during pre- and post the cycling process.
Support grid:
11.3 cm (L) x 7.6 cm (W) x 0.15 cm (H)
4.48 inch (L) x 2.99 inch (W) x 0.06 inch (H)
Wide Area (use with click on strip-cap, color coding plates, C7... tubes and C7....tube strips)

Click-on Cap(TM) strip, individual cap closure of (white) qPCR tube strips

The Click-on Cap(TM) Strip allows individual closure of (q)PCR tube strips. Limiting cross contamination and the possibility of signal enhancement in Real-Time PCR are two highly valued features that benefit users. It enables the use of white strip tubes combined with clear caps which can be individually closed. The new Click-on 8-cap strip does add an important feature to the existing range. “Clicking” the EU 8-Single Attachable Indented Cap strip to either BIOplastics low profile or regular profile 8 tube-strip enables full flexibility in composing colored 8-tubes-strips with natural clear single attachable optical caps. In most cases this feature is used as a combination of white 8 tube-strips and optical clear flat caps. Click-on CapsTM can be used in combination with BIOplastics (q)PCR strips type B77001 (Low Profile) and B77101 (Regular Profile). These combinations will work in all ABI, Bio-Rad and Roche LC 480 Real-Time and Real-Time fast cyclers. Some combinations require the use of an adaptor. (See www.bioplastics.com or Cycler Adaptor overview.)
