Optimize your performance using Thermo Scientific KingFisher Plastics designed specifically for use with the KingFisher Flex, Duo Prime, Presto and Apex instruments. KingFisher instruments utilize disposable plastic plates and tip combs made of polypropylene, which are ideal for magnetic particle processing due to their low binding affinity for biomolecules. Both the yield and quality of the isolated protein or nucleic acid are significantly improved with special plates and tip combs designed for KingFisher systems.
Engineered for Automated PurificationKingFisher Plastics are crafted to integrate perfectly with Thermo Fisher KingFisher instruments, ensuring reliable, consistent performance for automated nucleic acid and protein extraction. The deep-well, 96-well round-bottom format supports streamlined sample processing and compatibility with standard laboratory workflows.
Built for Laboratory DemandsConstructed from high-quality polypropylene, these plates feature exceptional chemical resistance and low binding properties. They are free from RNase and DNase, safeguarding nucleic acid integrity during extraction protocols. The non-sterile design suits general laboratory applications, while sterile variants may be available to accommodate different workflow requirements.
Flexible Packaging and Reliable TrackingAvailable in bags or racks, the pack sizes of KingFisher Plastics facilitate various throughput needs. Certain versions are equipped with alphanumeric barcodes, bolstering sample identification and traceability throughout sample processing, which is crucial for regulated and high-throughput environments.
FAQ's of Thermo Scientific KingFisher Plastics for 96 deep-well format:
Q: How are Thermo Scientific KingFisher Plastics for 96 deep-well format used in laboratory workflows?
A: These plastics are used as sample plates for automated nucleic acid and protein purification processes on Thermo Scientific KingFisher Flex, Apex, and Duo Prime instruments. Their design allows for high-throughput sample processing, essential for research and diagnostic laboratories.
Q: What makes the KingFisher Plastics suitable for nucleic acid extraction?
A: They are made from polypropylene (PP), which provides high chemical resistance and minimal binding. The plastics are RNase- and DNase-free, preventing sample degradation during nucleic acid extraction, and feature a round-bottom design for optimal mixing and recovery.
Q: When should I choose the non-sterile or sterile version of these plates?
A: Non-sterile KingFisher Plastics are ideal for most general laboratory applications where sterility is not critical. For sensitive protocols, such as clinical or diagnostic applications requiring aseptic conditions, sterile versions may be preferable. Availability can be confirmed by catalog number.
Q: Where can I obtain KingFisher Plastics in India?
A: KingFisher Plastics are distributed through authorized dealers, distributors, exporters, manufacturers, suppliers, traders, and wholesalers across India. Contact a local Thermo Fisher partner to find the most suitable vendor and pack size for your needs.
Q: What are the main benefits of using KingFisher Plastics for automated sample processing?
A: They deliver reliable sample purity, maximize yield in nucleic acid/protein extraction, and are optimized for fully automated workflows. Barcode options support efficient sample tracking, and disposable design eliminates cross-contamination risks.
Q: Are these plates safe for high-temperature procedures or autoclaving?
A: KingFisher Plastics withstand typical laboratory temperature ranges during extraction protocols but are not autoclavable. They are intended for single-use applications and should be disposed of after use.
Q: How do I select the correct pack size or variant for my instrument and throughput requirements?
A: Select the pack size and for options such as barcoding according to your laboratory's throughput needs and traceability standards. Reference your instrument's compatibility list and product catalog numbers to ensure correct ordering.
