Thermo Fisher Scientific Guide Helps Researchers Select the Best PCR Plastics for their Applications
EPSOM, UK, (April 13, 2010) Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, today announced its valuable new reference tool: the Thermo Scientific ABgene PCR Plastics Selection Guide. The guide allows quick and easy selection of the most appropriate plastics for specific applications, from standard PCR and qPCR to high-throughput, automated processes and sample storage. It helps researchers achieve the best results from these high-quality products.
Covering the comprehensive range of ABgene™ PCR Plastics, including 96-well plates, 384-well plates, partial plates, individual strips and individual tubes, the guide’s selection criteria include size, application, cycler compatibility, automation requirements and barcoding options.
The Guide clearly describes manufacturing processes to provide additional assurance for users. All products are designed, manufactured and tested to ensure optimal PCR performance – from the selection of medical-grade virgin polypropylene and precision mould design to performance and biological testing of finished products, every product is tested for well integrity, and PCR plates are certified free from RNase, DNase, and Human Genomic DNA. Accuracy, reliability and consistency are extremely important in PCR applications, and the Thermo Scientific ABgene PCR Plastics Selection Guide assists scientists in this decision-making process.
