MicroAmp 8-Cap Strip Dome Cap 240 Strips

The Applied Biosystems N801-0935 MicroAmp Optical 8-Cap Strip is a specialized consumable designed to provide a secure and contamination-free seal for PCR reaction tubes. This strip consists of eight individual caps connected together, allowing for the simultaneous sealing of an 8-tube strip or a row of a 96-well microplate.

A key feature of this cap strip is its dome cap design, which is optimal for traditional PCR. The rounded top of the cap helps to ensure a tight seal with the thermal cycler's heated lid, preventing sample evaporation and cross-contamination. While the dome shape is effective for traditional PCR, the flat-top design is typically preferred for real-time PCR (qPCR) because it provides a clear optical path for fluorescent detection. This cap strip is a reliable accessory for molecular biology laboratories performing standard PCR applications.
