These caps in sheet format are universally compatible with Azenta Life Sciences 96 well PCR plates. The caps can be individually applied and removed once detached from the backing liner, making the mats ideally suited for use with flexible PCR consumables, including individual access plates and divisible plates. The mats offer an alternative to adhesive and heat sealing, in particular as a temporary solution when samples need to be repeatedly accessed. They are easily pierceable with pipette tips to access samples, and they are easily removable using 1- and 8-way decappers or, alternatively, using Automated Plate Seal Remover if a seal is overlaid on top of the caps.
