All equipment brands and models are available.

A microplate sealer, or plate sealer, is used for sealing individual microplates in research and clinical laboratories—anywhere microplates are required.

They are designed to support increased demand and provide excellent sample storage, and are an essential part of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) applications, such as qPCR, as well as cell cultures and assays.

The seal protects and contains the microplate’s samples, provides a solution to short-term and long-term storage, and prevents evaporation, contamination, or spillage.

Sealers operate both manually and automatically using thermal or adhesive sealing. However, using automation to seal microplates greatly improves workflow and reproducibility, leading to high throughput and workflow optimization.

By increasing speed, reducing human error, and providing consistency, an automated microplate sealer offers often overlooked yet very significant benefits to the modern biotechnology or biochemical laboratory.

The programming design of these devices allows for easy robotic integration with many diagnostic instruments and systems, such as liquid handling robots. By combining your automated microplate sealer with a liquid handling system, you maximize walkaway time.
