ACTGene 12 Tube Strip with Flat Caps Thin Wall 0.2 ml 80 Strips

Description

ACTGene 210212R PCR Tube Strip – 12-Tube, 0.2 mL, Thin Wall, Flat Caps

The ACTGene 210212R is a precision-engineered 12-tube PCR strip designed for optimal thermal conductivity and sample security during molecular amplification. Manufactured from high-purity, medical-grade polypropylene, these 0.2 mL tubes feature “Thin-Wall” technology, which ensures rapid and uniform heat transfer from the thermal cycler block to the reaction mix. Each tube in the strip is equipped with an individually attached flat cap, providing a robust, leak-proof seal that effectively prevents sample evaporation even during high-temperature denaturation steps. The flat cap surface is optically clear, making these strips compatible with real-time PCR (qPCR) detection and providing an ideal surface for easy labeling. Certified free of RNase, DNase, and pyrogens, the 210212R is the premier choice for laboratories seeking a standardized, high-density format for genomic research and diagnostic testing.

Technical Performance and Design

• Thin-Wall Construction: Engineered for maximum thermal homogeneity across the entire 12-tube strip, reducing cycle times and improving the specificity of the PCR reaction.

• 12-Tube High-Density Format: Designed to perfectly match the dimensions of 96-well thermal blocks, allowing researchers to process larger sample batches with greater efficiency than traditional 8-tube strips.

• Individually Attached Flat Caps: The hinged cap design ensures that each tube is sealed independently, reducing the risk of cross-contamination and allowing for selective access to samples without disturbing adjacent tubes.

• Universal Cycler Compatibility: The standardized 0.2 mL geometry ensures a precision fit in a wide range of thermal cyclers, including models from Applied Biosystems, Bio-Rad, and Eppendorf.
