Hard-Shell® 96-Well PCR Plates, low profile, semi-skirted, clear/white, barcoded #HSL9905

Hard-Shell Low-Profile 96-Well Semi-Skirted PCR Plates are compatible with many cyclers, including Applied Biosystems 7500 fast and ViiA 7 fast instruments and many of Bio-Rad’s thermal cyclers and real-time PCR detection systems. Hard-Shell Plates are specifically designed to withstand the stresses of heat sealing, thermal cycling, and robotic handling. The patented* two-component microplate design provides superior stability and flatness, allowing precise positioning for automation. The low-profile wells are optimized for low-volume reactions and fast PCR.

Key Features and Benefits

• Semi-skirted — compatible with Applied Biosystems 7500 fast and ViiA 7 fast instruments
• Highly versatile design — provides compatibility with many thermal cyclers and real-time PCR detection systems, including the Bio-Rad C1000 Touch and CFX Real-Time PCR Systems
• Extremely uniform wells — reduce well-to-well variability in optical assays performed in real-time PCR
• Black lettering — facilitates well identification
• Rigid shell — ideal for heat sealing methods with instruments such as the PX1™ PCR Plate Sealer
