Manual microplate thermal plate sealer

Porvair Sciences has announced the MicroSeal - a new budget priced manual microplate heat sealer.

Designed to meet the needs of low to medium throughput laboratories for microplate sealing the MicroSeal is compact and easy-to-use. An ergonomic pull down mechanism makes single action heat sealing of a wide range of plates quick and simple.

Using a pre-set temperature of 170C, ideal for most common sealing applications, and dual LED status display of power and heating, the MicroSeal is very safe and easy to use. A built-in thermostat prevents overheating of plates.

Of the various methods for sealing microplates, heat sealing has become the preferred option as it creates an air tight and chemically-resistant seal without the complication of adhesives being applied to a plate. With its small footprint, ease of use and ability to handle a wide range of plates the MicroSeal is the obvious choice for laboratories looking for an affordable manual thermal plate sealer.
