Thermo Scientific™ Armadillo PCR Plate, 96-well, clear, semi-skirted, low profile, clear wells, barcoded
Description
Highlights
• Optically clear skirt—Aids in visualization of liquids and improves stacking capabilities in automated handling systems
• ANSI:SBS footprint—With rigidity of polycarbonate skirt, the ANSI footprint ensures complete compatibility with robotic systems for high throughput applications
• Thermostable polycarbonate semi-skirted frame design—Warp-resistant thermal cycling and enhanced mechanical stability in robotic handling
• Thin walled U-bottom wells—Optimal heat transfer and maximum sample recovery
• Indented Alphanumeric Grid reference lettering—Integrated frame and well design for improved heat sealing
• Low profile design—Allows for maximum heat transfer and minimal evaporation when utilizing low volume samples (200 μL working volume). Compatible with Roche LightCycler™ 480 Real-Time PCR systems
• Available in both clear (BC2496[X]) and white (BC3496[X]) colored wells—Ensures the highest level of sensitivity for all PCR/qPCR reactions
• Custom barcoding available—All plates can be provided barcoded to customer specifications for fully automated applications
Applications
• PCR
• qPCR/Real-Time PCR
Barcoding
The barcodes are the industry standard code 128. The label itself can withstand temperatures from -196°C up to 120°C to ensure that the barcodes stay on the plate throughout your entire workflow. It also has a special coating to virtually eliminate any ‘rubbing off' of the code during handling. The dual barcodes are located on the opposite numeric and opposite alpha sides of the plate.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
We recommend Thermo Scientific low profile PCR plates and tubes for reaction volumes below 20 µL. The low profile design minimizes the airspace between the PCR reaction and reduces evaporation effects, thereby increasing PCR efficiency in low volume reactions.
Low profile Thermo Scientific PCR plastics have shorter wells than the standard profile plastics, decreasing the “dead space” between the heated lid of the thermal cycler and the sample. This eliminates condensation on the side wall of the tube, preventing reduction in PCR volume and increasing the efficiency of the reaction.
We recommend Thermo Scientific Armadillo PCR plates which are designed for robotic handling with high rigidity and resistance. Combining the rigidity of a polycarbonate frame with thin walled polypropylene wells, the Armadillo plates provide superior thermal cycling performance under all conditions without warping.
The barcode has been carefully designed and positioned for compatibility with all major barcode readers. Each barcode includes a human readable format as a back up to the standard 128 barcode to ensure valuable samples can always be identified. The barcode labels themselves are scratch resistant and able to withstand chemical exposure and wide temperature extremes from -196 degrees C to +120 degrees C.
They are not certified endotoxin-free. However, their entire production process, from molding to final packaging, is carried out in a Class 100,000 clean room under ISO 9001 guidelines. All Thermo Scientific PCR plastics are certified free from RNase, DNase and human DNA.
