Description
The Agilent 410021 Microplate is a 96-well microplate designed for applications requiring precise liquid handling and efficient thermal cycling. This microplate features a 0.2 ml (200 µl) well volume, making it suitable for standard PCR (polymerase chain reaction) and qPCR applications. It is constructed entirely from polypropylene, a material chosen for its excellent thermal stability and chemical resistance, which are crucial properties for handling PCR reagents and withstanding rapid temperature changes during amplification.
A key characteristic of this microplate is its “no skirt” design. This means the plate lacks the extended plastic rim around its base, resulting in a compact footprint. This design can be advantageous for certain automated liquid handling systems or thermal cyclers that require minimal plate dimensions for optimal fit and heat transfer. The absence of a skirt also allows for more direct contact with the thermal block of PCR instruments, contributing to efficient and uniform temperature transfer to the samples.
This Agilent microplate is a reliable consumable for molecular biology laboratories performing PCR and related nucleic acid amplification techniques.
