Thermo Scientific Microplate 96 Well Full Skirt Low Profile 25 Plates

The Thermo Scientific AB-0800150 Microplate is a specialized 96-well plate designed for use in Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and other thermal cycling applications. This microplate features a full skirt, which is a rigid frame extending down the sides of the plate. The full skirt design provides mechanical stability, makes the plate easier to handle, and is ideal for integration with automated liquid handling systems and thermal cyclers that require a flat, consistent base.

The plate is designed with a low profile, meaning the wells are shorter than standard PCR plates. This reduced height minimizes the air gap between the reaction solution and the thermal cycler's heated lid, which optimizes heat transfer and reduces condensation and evaporation. This feature is crucial for achieving consistent and accurate results in PCR.

The microplate is constructed from natural-colored polypropylene, a durable plastic chosen for its excellent thermal stability and chemical inertness. The natural color allows for optical detection, making it suitable for standard and real-time PCR (qPCR) applications. The Thermo Scientific AB-0800150 is a reliable consumable for molecular biology laboratories performing high-throughput PCR.
