Low DNA Binding Products
- Azenta Life Sciences offer low binding products, recommended to support sensitive techniques such as qPCR and Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), as well as storage of samples.
- Manufactured using selected low-bind polymers, DNA loss is minimized during incubation and sample transfer, making it the ideal solution for use in applications with low DNA input.
- Low binding feature results from selected low-bind polymers, no coating is used to achieve the binding characteristics. No contamination or modification of the samples.
- Tested under a broad temperature range. Maximum DNA recovery after low temperature storage and high temperature incubations.
- No detectable DNA loss during incubation steps and sample transfer in NGS sample prep and library construction. Ideally suited for sensitive applications with ultra-low nucleic acid input.
Quality
- Free from DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA, and endotoxin/pyrogen
- Stackable
Wells
- Ultra-smooth, uniform, thin-walled polypropylene tubes for optimum PCR and real-time (RT-qPCR) results
- <30µl working volume, 55µl total well capacity
Frame
- Rigid polycarbonate frame for added mechanical stability
- Significantly reduced thermal expansion and sample evaporation for improved consistency in PCR results
- Improved seal integrity due to thermal stability of the frame
- Alphanumeric grid reference to aid well and sample identification
Use
- Recommended for low volume PCR, for use on standard thermal cyclers
- Compatible with standard multichannel pipettes
- Ideal for use with robotic systems
- Compatible with the majority of 384 well block PCR, qPCR and sequencing instruments
Options
- Available with the following frame color options for the clear well variety: purple, blue, clear, green, red, and black
- Also available as a black frame with white wells (for optimum signal-to-noise ratio when using fluorescent based assays)
- Available as a black frame with black wells (for minimal light diffusion and interference)
- Also available as a clear frame with frosted wells for use with ABI®/LifeTechnologies® qPCR instruments
- Extra rigid skirt option (4ti-0384/RIG) for use with automation systems: eliminates the robotic grip picking up more than one plate at a time
- Ultra-low DNA binding option available (4ti-LB0384/C) for sensitive applications with ultra-low DNA input and for maximum DNA recovery after low temperature storage and high temperature incubation; learn more about our low binding range
- Available barcoded upon request; learn more about our barcoding options
