Hamburg — By launching the new HeatSealer Family Eppendorf offers now two new

devices for reliable sealing of different plate formats. To match various

requirements, there is a choice between a small and extremely user-friendly

device, HeatSealer S100, and a slightly bigger version, HeatSealer S200, with

flexible programmable sealing parameters. Both models allow for easy,

reproducible and effective sealing of plates, thereby efficiently preventing

evaporation and contamination.

Thanks to a selection of adapters the standard plate formats can still be

used. Whether hermetic sealing of multiwell plates or effective evaporation

protection for low-profile PCR plates is required, the Eppendorf HeatSealer is

always the right choice. An integrated thermostat prevents overheating while

enabling reliable and reproducible sealing of the plate. The press-on

mechanism was improved and makes handling even more simple.

Furthermore, the HeatSealer S200 features different sealing temperatures

and times, selectable depending on requirements, plates and sealing option.

„A reliable assay result can only be achieved with plates that are reproducibly

and tightly sealed. This also applies to the storage of samples. Especially for

long-term storage, tight sealing is crucial for save storage of your sample

until you need it again!“ says Dr. Kay Körner, Senior Global Product Manager

PCR with Eppendorf.
