Sheets of 96 foil seal spots for sealing of individual wells, suitable for storage and PCR, pierceable
Random Access Pierce Heat Seal Strong features 96 individual foil seal spots on a removable backing. These seals result in individually sealed tubes that are pierceable, allowing for sample addition straight into pre-dispensed reagents, without fiddly removal of the seal.
Random Access Pierce Heat Seal Strong is compatible with polypropylene and COC plates. This seal is peelable from COC plates and gives a weld seal to polypropylene plates. Demonstrating good solvent resistance, it can be used for low temperature and room temperature compound storage in DMSO and organic solvents. The seal can be pierced with a pipette tip manually, or by a liquid handling robot.
Applications include sample shipping, storage and PCR.
Manual Random Access Heat Sealing
Random Access Pierce Heat Seal Strong is currently available in sheet format for use with the 4s3™ Semi-Automated Sheet Heat Sealer (using the 4ti-0613 Random Access adapter).
The 96 well Random Access plate can be sealed in one step resulting in individually sealed tubes that are pierceable, allowing for sample access.

Coming Soon – Automated Random Access Heat Sealing
The roll-fed a4SRA Automatic Random Access Heat Sealer allows for automatic sealing of Random Access plates using Random Access Heat Seal rolls.The roll with the indexed groups of 96 individual sealing discs is automatically fed through the heat sealer. The accurate sealing is controlled by a sensor which gets activated by optical windows in the material feed, but can also by adjusted. Sealing temperature, time of sealing and exit delay (for cooling) can be controlled via the instrument’s touchscreen.Custom versions of instrument and sealing material are possible.
