Greiner Bio-One, a leading technology partner
for the diagnostic and pharmaceutical industry, will be showcasing its new 96
and 384 well PCR microplates for Real Time PCR at Biotechnica 2011. The
polypropylene PCR microplates, which have a high proportion of white pigment,
boost the fluorescence signals. This results in improved Real Time PCR
sensitivity and makes the PCR microplates far superior to transparent plates.
With its new white 96 and 384 well PCR microplates, Greiner
Bio-One GmbH is expanding its range of high-quality PCR products. The plates
are ideal for use in numerous Real Time PCR systems. Black alphanumeric well
coding ensures fast identification of samples in the plate. The white wells
boost the fluorescence signals significantly, while disruptive background
fluorescence is also reduced considerably, leading to improved homogeneity for
the replicas and to reproducible results.
The two microplates have a skirt and lateral notches for
grippers, thereby enabling easy automation. The 96 well microplate can be
sealed with suitable cap strips or adhesive films. Adhesive films are
recommended for the 384 well PCR plate. The plates are free of detectable DNase,
RNase, human DNA and free of detectable endotoxins.
The resealable bags for packing the microplates allow dust-
and contamination-free removal of small quantities.
