Eppendorf Twin.tec PCR Plates

Eppendorf Twin.tec PCR Plates are 20% thinner than conventional thin-walled tubes, allowing the wells to conform optimally against the thermal block and ensuring heat transfer from the block into the sample is practically uninterrupted. The wells are made of virgin polypropylene specially selected for minimal binding of DNA, RNA, and enzymes with maximum recovery, even when working with ultra-small volumes. The plate surface and the frame are made of rigid polycarbonate that provides high mechanical stability. Raised well rims provide effective sealing and reduce the risk of cross-contamination. 

Choose from two versions:

Standard PCR Plates are 96 wells and an ideal choice for the use with automation or robotics.

LoBind PCR Plates help improve recovery of nucleic acids by reducing the absorption into the tube wall. These plates provide nearly 100% recovery of DNA/RNA molecules without surface coating to eliminate the sample contamination risks. Ideal for quantitative real-time PCR.

Both versions of plates are available in semi-skirted or skirted frames. The semi-skirted frame has a 250µL max. well volume when used with cap strips (not included). The skirted frame has eight holes located in the skirt to facilitate plate positioning and removal from thermal cycler blocks. Its low-profile design is within SBS footprint recommendations. It has 150µL max. well volume when used with cap strips (not included).
