Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Can I run strip tubes on the ViiA 7 instrument?

Yes. Make sure to use the appropriate matching parts. For the 96-well standard block, use the standard 96-well plate adapter (Cat. No. 4459845), the retainer tray for (0.2 mL) tubes, and Optical 8-Tube Strips and Caps (Cat. No. 4316567 and 4323032). For the 96-well Fast block, use the Fast 96-well plate adapter (Cat. No. 4462078), the retainer tray (Cat. No. 4379983), and Fast (0.1 mL) Optical 8-tube Caps and Strips (Cat. Nos. 4323032 and 4358293).

What is the difference between the MicroAmp Optical Tubes (P/N801-0933) and the ABI PRISM Optical Tubes (P/N 4316567)? Is there any difference in the quality of the plastic used for the two different types?

There is no difference between these tubes.The MicroAmp Optical Tubes (P/N N801-0933) and the ABI PRISM Optical Tubes (P/N 4316567) are both made of a high-grade polypropylene. The tubes are frosted on the bottom and the caps provide for enhanced light transfer. Using non-optical tubes can give rise to significant attenuations in signal and therefore will lead to potential decreases in sensitivity in real-time assays.
