Description
It’s Purpose:
The Eppendorf 5390 Microplate Heat Sealer is a laboratory instrument that is used to seal microplates. Microplates are small plastic or glass plates that are used to hold and process small samples of liquids or solids in laboratory settings. The purpose of the Eppendorf 5390 Microplate Heat Sealer is to provide a secure, airtight seal for microplates, which helps to prevent contamination and evaporation of samples.
The Eppendorf 5390 Microplate Heat Sealer uses a heated platen to melt and seal a thin film of plastic or foil over the top of a microplate. The heat from the platen creates a strong bond between the film and the plate, which seals the plate and creates a secure, airtight seal. The Eppendorf 5390 Microplate Heat Sealer can be used with a range of different types and sizes of microplates, making it a versatile tool for laboratory use.
Acme’s Summary:
The Eppendorf 5390 Microplate Heat Sealer is designed to be easy to use and reliable. It features a simple, intuitive interface that allows users to quickly and easily set up and run sealing protocols. It also includes a range of safety features, such as automatic shut-off and over-temperature protection, which help to prevent accidents and ensure safe operation.
Overall, the Eppendorf 5390 Microplate Heat Sealer is an essential tool for laboratory researchers and technicians who need to seal microplates quickly and reliably. Its ability to create airtight seals helps to protect samples from contamination and evaporation, which is critical for accurate and reliable laboratory analysis.
