ThermalSeal RTS^™ Sealing Film, Non-Sterile, Excel Scientific, Inc. (CAT#: STEM-MPS-0057-LC)

The ThermalSeal RTS^™ Sealing Film manufactured by Excel Scientific, Inc. is a 50 μm thick polyolefin film with 50 μm inert encapsulated silicone adhesive for real-time qPCR, storage, and protein crystallization applications. They are optically clear, with low autofluorescence. The encapsulated silicone adhesive is non-tacky until pressed against the sealing surface, at which time adhesive is released only in sealing areas to form the strongest available heat-resistant seal around each well on the plate. Adhesive on non-sealing areas of the film, such as directly over sample wells, remains encapsulated and inert. ThermalSeal RTS^™ films are sized to fit within the edges of raised-rim 96-well plates. Their consistent high optical clarity makes possible reproducible, reliable, and consistent DNA amplification measurements and crystal detection. Two end tabs facilitate the positioning of the film, and the non-tacky adhesive surface is easy to handle. It is easy to remove the end tabs at perforated boundaries to prevent lifting and higher evaporation rates that can occur with films that overlap the plate rim.
