Laboratory Products 29 Precision PCR starts with smarter plates


Reliable PCR and qPCR results depend on more than just enzymes and primers - the quality of your consumables can make or break an assay. Azenta Life Sciences has developed its 4titude® range of thermal cycling workfl ows.


Produced from high-purity virgin polypropylene in an ISO Class 7 cleanroom, these 96- and 384-well plates are available in a choice of low- or high-profi le formats and a variety of skirted styles to suit most thermocyclers. Their ultra-thin walls enable fast, even heat transfer for consistent amplifi cation, while raised well rims promote secure sealing and reduce the risk of cross-contamination or evaporation.


Plate colour matters - especially in real-time PCR. While clear wells are ideal for manual pipetting and sample visibility, they often compromise fl uorescence detection. To overcome this, 4titude® low-copy targets or borderline positives.


offers white-well plates that boost signal intensity and reproducibility - critical for detecting


To address instrument compatibility issues sometimes caused by white wells, Azenta also provides frosted-well plates. These deliver improved signal refl ection over clear wells, without triggering readout errors in sensitive qPCR systems.


For added fl exibility, divisible plates let users snap off sections for smaller-scale runs, cutting down on plastic waste and saving costs. And with a range of frame colours and well fi nishes - clear, frosted, or white - labs can organise workfl ows at a glance and minimise handling errors. Whether you’re scaling up for high-throughput assays or optimising conditions for a single critical target, 4titude®


PCR plates are designed to bring greater reliability to every reaction. More information online: ilmt.co/PL/Lw3b 64685pr@reply-direct.com


Ductless fume hoods with enhanced safety features AirClean®


Endeavour Ductless Fume Hoods feature the easy-to-use AirSafe® range of PCR plates, engineered to deliver consistency, fl exibility, and effi ciency across a wide


Systems’ Endeavour™ Ductless Fume Hoods eliminate the need for costly installation, ductwork, and over-built HVAC systems associated with traditional


fume hood use in the laboratory. Its seamless, thermally-welded polypropylene construction means the Endeavour will never rust, providing years of service life. The rolled-entry design combined with AirZone™ baffl ing provides laminar fl ow within the cabinet, preventing eddy currents and keeping fumes or particulate from escaping the hood. All electronics and blowers are post-fi lter, so they are never exposed to chemicals used in the hood.


NXT automatic safety controller for added operator safety. This colour touch-screen controller


automatically increases or decreases blower speed to maintain the user’s pre-set face velocity, ensuring airfl ow is within standard operating parameters. The current face velocity is displayed at all times. AirSafe NXT also monitors the bonded carbon fi ltration bed, alerting the user audibly and visually should fi lter saturation occur.


The Endeavour features a unique application confi rmation sequence that is required with every use of the hood. AirSafe NXT displays the approved chemical class for the hood and waits for a confi rmation from the user before allowing the hood to be used.
