| Product Name | PCR Tube Strips with Dome Caps, 8-Strip |
| Catalog No. | IGM-HMM-0051 |
| Description | Integrated 8-strip PCR tube and dome cap system for convenient single-step PCR setup. Individual dome caps attached to each tube via flexible hinge, eliminating the need for separate cap strips and reducing risk of cap mix-up. |
| Intended Use | Convenient PCR and qPCR tube format where individual tube access is beneficial, such as in diagnostic PCR panels, teaching laboratories, and workflows requiring sequential tube opening during the procedure. |
| Principle / Technology | Each of the 8 tubes has an integrally molded hinge-connected dome cap that snaps securely into place. Dome design provides interior clearance above the reaction, reducing condensation interference in optical detection. The strip format maintains the standard 9 mm center-to-center spacing for 96-well block compatibility. |
| Detection Method | Cap seal integrity by dye leak test at 95 C; PCR thermal cycling uniformity; evaporation after 40 standard PCR cycles |
| Sample Type | Clinical diagnostic samples, teaching laboratory PCR templates, DNA genotyping panels, pathogen detection specimens |
| Performance Range / Specifications | Tube volume 0.2 mL; cap seal >20 open-close cycles; evaporation <3% over 40 PCR cycles; reaction volume 10-50 uL recommended |
| Sensitivity / LOD | DNase <0.05 pg/uL; RNase <0.01 ng/mL; human DNA non-detectable; endotoxin <0.01 EU/tube |
| Specificity | No PCR inhibition across 5 commercial master mixes tested; cap polymer does not leach PCR-interfering substances |
| Reaction Conditions / Protocol | Open dome cap by lifting tab; add reagents; press cap down firmly until seated; place in thermal cycler; cap may be opened post-PCR for product analysis. |
| Components / Formulation | Medical-grade polypropylene tube strip with integrally molded polypropylene dome caps; no metal springs or separate components |
| Storage Conditions | 15-30 C, clean environment; store in original bag to maintain nuclease-free status |
| Shelf Life | 36 months from manufacture |
| Package Specifications | 120 strips per bag; pre-racked format 12 strips per plate 96-tube configuration |
| Product Form | 8-tube strip with attached individual dome caps, clear, nuclease-free |
| Quality Control | Individual cap closure force verification; PCR leak test with dye solution; nuclease certification per batch; cap hinge fatigue testing to 20 open-close cycles minimum |
| Key Features | Integrated dome caps eliminate separate cap handling; individual tube access without disturbing adjacent tubes; secure snap closure; RNase/DNase-free; easy one-handed cap operation |
| Purity | PCR-clean certified; free of DNase, RNase, human genomic DNA; PCR inhibitor-free; bioburden <0.1 CFU/tube |
| Concentration | N/A |
| Activity / Unit Definition | N/A |
| Molecular Weight | N/A |
| Source / Origin | Medical-grade polypropylene; manufactured in ISO 13485 certified facility in cleanroom environment |
| pH Range / Optimal pH | Polypropylene construction chemically resistant pH 1-14; no substance leaching across full PCR temperature range (4-98 C) |
| Shipping Conditions | Ambient temperature; protect strip tubes from crushing; boxes oriented upright |
| Expiration Date / Stability | 3 years in sealed original packaging; hinge flexibility and cap seal maintained throughout shelf life |
| Regulatory / Compliance | ISO 13485:2016; CE marked; compliant with EN ISO 8655 for pipetting system compatibility; RoHS 3 (EU 2015/863) compliant |
| Compatibility | Fits all standard 96-well thermal cycler blocks; compatible with 8-channel pipettors; individual tubes can be separated by cutting connecting rib |
| Recommended Buffer System | Compatible with all PCR master mixes including those with SYBR Green, TaqMan probes, and multiplex formulations |
| Application Notes / Precautions | Open caps by lifting the tab rather than twisting; ensure each cap is fully closed before thermal cycling (audible snap indicates proper closure); do not write on dome cap surface as this may interfere with optical detection in qPCR applications |
| Batch-to-Batch Consistency | Cap closure force maintained within specification across production lots; PCR evaporation performance verified per batch with 40-cycle water-loss test; dimensional tolerances per 8-cavity mold verified by automated inspection |
