The Thermo Scientific 24-well Piko PCR Plates, clear,belong to a family of PCR plates which have the footprint of a microscope slide. We have not only shrunk the size of the plate, but dramatically reduced the thickness of the well walls utilizing our patented ultra-thin wall (UTW) technology.

Highlights

• Ultra Thin Wall (UTW) for fast PCR/qPCR applications
• Low profile
• Designed for use with the Piko and PikoReal 24-well thermal cyclers
• Plates can be snapped into the plate frame to create a standard 96-well plate
• Compatible with standard multi-channel pipettes and liquid-handling platforms
• Well spacing and footprint conform to industry (ANSI) dimensions

Applications

• PCR

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Are ultra thin wall (UTW) vessels compatible with real-time experiments?

Yes. All of the UTW plastics we provide are well suited for qPCR reactions.

Find additional tips, troubleshooting help, and resources within our Real-Time PCR and Digital PCR Instruments Support Center.

Will ultra thin wall (UTW) vessels automatically speed up reactions on my conventional thermal cycler?

To realize the time savings of the UTW plastics on conventional thermal cyclers, optimization of the protocol is required. This typically involves reducing hold times and changing the actual hold temperatures.

Are ultra thin wall (UTW) vessels prone to break more often because of their thinner walls?

When used as instructed, these vessels are remarkably robust and can handle typical laboratory conditions, without fracturing or resulting in loss of volume. It is recommended that, when applying caps, a proper tray be used to protect the bottom of the tubes from excessive force that is typically used.

Can I use lower volumes in my 96-well Piko PCR Plate than I could in a conventional 96-well microplate?

Yes. Typically, you should be able to use less than half the volume that you currently use on your conventional cycler and achieve equivalent or better results.

How do I know whether I need to purchase the frames for my Piko PCR Plates?

The frames for the Piko PCR Plates allow for easier handling and storage, particularly if you wish to use these plates in conjunction with laboratory equipment designed for microplates (such as centrifuges, plate readers or liquid handlers). Also, the frames allow the ability to stack the plates in a stable and compact fashion for archiving or storage.
