Adhesive Sealing Films in Roll-Seal™ Format for Automation

Excel Scientific now offers adhesive sealing films on Roll-Seal™ rolls for use with high-throughput automated microplate sealers. Film rolls, constructed on three-inch-diameter plastic cores, are compatible with most common adhesive sealers (Brandel, Thermo-Fisher/Abgene, FluidX, KBiosystems). The Roll-Seal format provides reliable and efficient sealing at a lower cost per plate with minimal user intervention. Robust static-free packaging provides protection during shipment and facilitates accurate alignment and adhesion.

• made in USA
• fast, efficient, high-throughput sealing; 2.5-5 seconds/plate; no handling and backing removal from individual sheets
• hands-free; reduces chance of mishap or contamination; more uniform sealing from plate-to-plate
• heat-free; no high temperatures to damage sensitive samples or warp plates and cause robotic handling problems
• especially convenient when working with foils; avoids curling that occurs with individual sheets
• economical; lower cost per plate than individual sheet seals or heat-seal films
• easier peel for removal compared to many heat-seal films
• high-precision dispensing with automated sealers; consistent positioning on plates
• compatible with most current adhesive SBS plate sealers
• static-free manufacturing and packaging facilitates alignment and adhesion
• protective packaging prevents damage during shipping
• plastic cores eliminate corrugate fiber dust

Roll-Seal adhesive seals are currently available in three sealing materials:

• ThermalSeal RTS™ high-vapor-barrier, clear polyolefin with ultra-strong pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive for qPCR, sitting-drop protein crystallization, HTS, storage and general incubation applications
• DMSO resistant
• nuclease-, nucleic acid-, and pyrogen-free
• recommended for real-time PCR, sitting-drop protein crystallization, HTS and storage
• provides as strong a bond to the plate as heat-seal films without the drawbacks of heat
• AlumaSeal® pierceable aluminum foil with pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive for PCR, HTS and cold storage
• DMSO resistant
• easily pierceable for sample recovery
• nuclease-, nucleic acid-, and pyrogen-free
• recommended for PCR, HTS, and cold storage
• AeraSeal™ breathable rayon films for cell and tissue culture
• non-cytotoxic, highly gas permeable
• easily pierceable for sample recovery
