PCR/MICROPLATE SEALING AND PEELING FOR HIGH-THROUGHPUT LABS WORKING TOWARDS A NEW GOLD STANDARD FOR PLATE PROCESSING brookslifesciences.com White Paper2 PCR/Microplate Sealing and Peeling for High Throughput Labs INTRODUCTION PCR plates and microplates usually require some type of seal to prevent evaporation, which otherwise may alter sample concentrations and impair repeatability. Manual sealing and peeling of plates can be a low-cost process for low-throughput labs and workflows, however, as throughput increases so does the risk of associated hazards and constraints. These can include: Repetitive strain injury Downtime due to absence can have a clear link to lab throughput and potentially increase the demands on already high workloads. A common cause of lost workdays is carpal tunne
