96 well Lasermark coded (q)PCR plates
25-August-2009

We are proud to officially release our 96 well Lasermark-coded Thin-wall (q)PCR Plates, which fit all Applied Biosystems (ABI) cyclers and qPCR cyclers. The plates are extreme uniform, flat, stackable and incorporate BIOplastics’ latest BPLPM technology ensuring superior performance, reproducibility and marking performances.

BIOplastics BPLPM technology (BIOplastics particle mix) is inert to the (q)PCR process. In addition these particles by nature increase signal to noise ratio’s in Real Time PCR applications. All 96 well plates are permanently laser marked with a unique ID, wells are laser marked A to H and 1-12 and also available with additional laser barcodes.

Lasermark-coded Skirted Thin-wall 384 well (q)PCR plates are available in boxes of 40 plates (5 bags of 8 plates).

New Easy One Hand Opening Closure Screw Cap
17-July-2009

Last year we introduced our innovative screw cap tubes, which can be used over the impressive temperature range of – 200 °C to +100 °C.

Due to the fact that some customers prefer “Easy Closure-one-hand opening” of screw cap tubes, BIOplastics has designed an Easy Closure Cap for the Screw Cap tube range. Customers can now opt for either Regular Closure or Easy Closure. For robust applications such as long term storage: >= 3 years below - 60 °C or incubation at >= 95 °C for >= 2 hours, one should opt for the regular closure caps. For less robust applications: <= 3 years higher than -60 °C or less stringent incubation <= 100 °C, <= 1.5 hours, one can opt for the Easy Closure Cap. Both types of caps incorporate BIOplastics’ non leaking Smart Closure Cap Technology.

The Easy Closure Cap is manufactured from a completely different material. All types of Screw Caps and Screw Tubes are available in 10 different colors, DNase, RNase, Pyrogen, Metal and ATP free.

The EU Thin wall (q)PCR Robust 12-Tube strip
14-April-2009

These strips are universal and fit all thermocyclers which require standard profile strips. They even fit the ABI 7300 and 7500 Cyclers.
The strip is lightly frosted and therefore enables signal enhancement in qPCR, without compromising the view through the tubes.
The Robust 12-Tube strip is particularly useful since the easiness of left to right pipetting, typically used in manual handling, is supported.
For closure we recommend the wide area indented flat 12-cap strip for qPCR (B57821) and the indented flat 12-cap strip for PCR (B56501).

Breakable Non Skirted Thin-wall 96 x 0.2 ml plate
27-March-2009

These plates are universal and fit all thermocyclers which require standard profile products. They even fit the original ABI 7300 and 7500 cyclers as well as sequencers.
So with one type of plate you can serve about 90% of the thermocycler market!

The plates are lightly frosted and therefore enable signal enhancement in qPCR, however still allow to view the content of the tubes.For closure we recommend the wide area indented flat 8-cap strip for qPCR (B57801) or OptiSeal.

Screw cap tubes
16-May-2008

We are proud to now officially release our new innovative screw cap tubes.
These screw cap tubes use a Smart Closure Technology to give a gas tight closure without O-ring and thereby prevent leaking tubes, even when using organic solvents.
The caps and tubes are both available in 10 colors, so up to 100 color combinations are possible.
The screw cap tubes are available in 0.5 ml, 1.5 ml and 2.0 ml format, both conical and free standing.
