The Thermo Scientific Armadillo PCR plates, Barcoded, are the ultimate in high performance PCR plastics. Combining the rigidity of a polycarbonate frame with thin-walled polypropylene wells, the Armadillo plate provides superior thermal cycling performance under all conditions without warping. These 384-well plates are clear with white wells.

Features of Armadillo Barcoded PCR plates:

Optically clear skirt—aids in visualization of liquids and improves stacking capabilities in automated handling systems
Raised rim design—improved well surface area improves seal integrity in automated heat sealing
ANSI:SBS footprint—with rigidity of polycarbonate skirt, the ANSI footprint ensures complete compatibility with robotic systems for high-throughput applications
Thermostable polycarbonate frame design—warp-resistant thermal cycling and enhanced mechanical stability in robotic handling
Thin walled U-bottom wells—optimal heat transfer and maximum sample recovery
Indented Alphanumeric Grid reference lettering—integrated frame and well design for improved heat sealing
Low profile design—allows for maximum heat transfer and minimal evaporation when utilizing low volume samples (30 μL working volume)
White colored wells— Ensures the highest level of sensitivity for all qPCR reactions
Barcoded—all plates are provided with barcoding and can be barcoded to customer specifications for fully-automated applications

White plates are ideal for luminescence-based assays
Applications:
• PCR
• qPCR/Real-Time PCR

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

When should I use a Thermo Scientific low profile PCR plastic?

We recommend Thermo Scientific low profile PCR plates and tubes for reaction volumes below 20 µL. The low profile design minimizes the airspace between the PCR reaction and reduces evaporation effects, thereby increasing PCR efficiency in low volume reactions.

What is a low profile Thermo Scientific plate/tube?

Low profile Thermo Scientific PCR plastics have shorter wells than the standard profile plastics, decreasing the “dead space” between the heated lid of the thermal cycler and the sample. This eliminates condensation on the side wall of the tube, preventing reduction in PCR volume and increasing the efficiency of the reaction.

Plate warping is causing problems with the robot in my automated processes. How can I solve this?

We recommend Thermo Scientific Armadillo PCR plates which are designed for robotic handling with high rigidity and resistance. Combining the rigidity of a polycarbonate frame with thin walled polypropylene wells, the Armadillo plates provide superior thermal cycling performance under all conditions without warping.

Why should I use Thermo Scientific white plastics in qPCR?

White plates and tubes reflect significantly more signal back to the qPCR instrument's detector than traditional clear plates. The improved signal reflection ensures that even the lowest levels of fluorescence are detected. White well walls also prevent signal from passing through to the cycler block where it can be inconsistently reflected or absorbed. This keeps variations in the cycler block from affecting qPCR data. Using Thermo Scientific white PCR plastics increases sensitivity and reduces variability within the qPCR assay.

Are Thermo Scientific ABgene plastics endotoxin-free?

They are not certified endotoxin-free. However, their entire production process, from molding to final packaging, is carried out in a Class 100,000 clean room under ISO 9001 guidelines. All Thermo Scientific PCR plastics are certified free from RNase, DNase and human DNA.
