The ReLoad PCR Tube Strip Plate is made up of 12 individual 8-well PCR strips, each of which can be independently removed from the ultra-rigid polycarbonate frame. This innovative system enables the used reaction well strips to be safely disposed, while the polycarbonate frame can be reloaded with new strips for the next application. Adopting the ReLoad PCR plate in place of a standard fixed well PCR plate drastically reduces the amount of plastic waste requiring safe disposal, typically done by incineration for laboratory waste.
The fully skirted ReLoad PCR plate weighs approximately 30 grams, comparable to a standard 2-component PCR plate. Each ReLoad PCR tube strip, however, weighs just over one half of one gram. By disposing only the used strips and reusing the frame, this means that nearly 24 grams of plastic are saved from incineration each time the ReLoad frame is used again. In other words, each ReLoad frame that is reused saves 77% of the total weight of plastic from being incinerated.
Developed in tandem with the ReLoad PCR Tube Strip Plate, the ReLoad tool was designed for ease of use with laboratory technicians in mind. It seamlessly and efficiently pops out used or unwanted strips and pushes in new tube strips in mere seconds. Together, this product line advances Arvensis’ mission to drive change on how PCR plates are manufactured, consumed, and disposed, and helping to reduce the negative impact these processes have on our global carbon footprint.
Our ReLoad PCR product range is available as 8-tube strip formats, either low profile tubes or standard profile tubes. Both versions are designed to work with most thermal cyclers and sequencers on the market. The flexibility in format is ideal for diagnostic kit design, as well as an economical way for academic labs to use only what is needed for a particular experiment without using an entire plate. You will find this format is more economical than purchasing only tube strips.
Our ReLoad PCR Tube Strips are available in packages of 120 tube strips or bulk refill packs of 600 tube strips. These refill options offer a significant reduction of plastic waste in the lab.
We have a rigorous quality program to ensure our plates adhere to all our specifications, and more importantly, meet your expectations. The quality team performs several visual inspections throughout the manufacturing process to ensure there are no defects. We also measure several critical areas for conformance to our dimensional requirements. Every plate undergoes a sensitive electronic well-integrity test to ensure there are no holes in the well. That means every single well of every plate has been checked for leaks before being packaged. We also perform a range of additional tests to check for plate and well integrity, and a PCR evaporation test to ensure our plates do not leak after heat-sealing. Finally, we perform a fluorometric detection assay to ensure there is no DNase or RNase contamination, and a quantitative PCR test to ensure our products are free from detectable human genomic DNA and free from PCR inhibitors.
