Peelable foils can be removed with no residue (non-tacky) and resealed up to 25 times.

The xrs-384 Automated Plate Sealer offer a quick and integration friendly way to seal any SBS standard plate or deep well block. The xrs-384 uses an SBS micro plate holder on a linear shuttle mechanism which allows for simple robotic integration. The home position has open access, the shuttle then delivers the plate to the sealing unit which can apply a constant pressure, ensuring a uniform seal in less than 10 seconds.
The xrs-384 is fully programmable to accommodate all plate heights in 96, 384 and 1536-well formats to achieve a rapid and secure seal with Adhesive sealing foils and films.

Adhesive Sealing is widely used for short and long-term sample storage, thermal cycling and assay incubation, Since there is no heat damage to well chimneys, it is the preferable sealing method for applications in which plates must be sealed and accessed several times. In addition, applications such as protein crystallography and bacterial/cell culture growth require sealing with adhesives, as even small temperature fluctuations with samples need to be avoided.The xcs-384 and xrs-384 Plate Sealers are also used for applications such as protein crystallography and bacterial/cell culture growth, where sealing with adhesives is required but even small temperature fluctuations need to be avoided.

The range of sealing materials now available includes peelable, pierceable, optically clear and no-tacky seals. All demonstrate good integrity at low and high temperatures (down to -80oC) and chemical
resistance (including DMSO).

Adhesive Films and Foils

Part No.	Description	Application
40-1001	Adhesive Aluminium Sealing Foil (peeling). High solvent resistance (e.g. DMSO). Temperature range: -80C to 120C. 100m per roll (approx. 800 plates).	Standard peeling foil for microplate storage at low temperatures. Suitable for PCR-plates.
40-1002	Adhesive Aluminium Sealing Foil (piercing) High solvent resistance. Temperature range: -80C to 120C. 100m per roll (approx. 800 plates).	Standard piercing foil for microplate storage at low temperatures. Suitable for PCR-plates.
40-1003	Adhesive Polyolefin-Foil (peeling). Solvent resistant. Temperature range: -25C to 120C. 100m per roll (approx. 800 plates).	Micro-encapsulated adhesive film. Eliminates any possible contact between your sample and the adhesive. Particularly suitable for imaging and protein crystallography applications.
40-1004	Adhesive Polyolefin-Foil (peeling, prepierced). Solvent resistant. Temperature range: -25C to 120C. 100m per roll (approx. 800 plates).	Similar to 40-1003. Pre-pierced foil ensuring good gas exchange.
40-1005	Adhesive, Nonwoven-Foil. Permeable, impervious to fluids, good gas exchange. Temperature range: -5C to 60C. 100m per roll (approx. 800 plates).	Gas permeable membrane for enhanced cell growth. Suitable for use in autoclaves and similar equipment.
40-1006	Adhesive Polypropylene Film (peeling). High solvent resistance. Temperature range: -80C to 120C. 100m per roll (approx. 800 plates).	Clear foil, for use for photometric applications, high transmission down to 276nm. Suitable for sealing assay plates, storage plates and PCR plates.
40-1007	Adhesive Crystal Clear Polypropylene Film (peeling). Solvent resistant. Temperature range: -40C to 120C. 100m per roll (approx. 800 plates).	Crystal clear foil with low background noise for optical imaging applications (cell imaging, protein crystallography).
