Compatibility note: These results are a selection aid, not a final compatibility determination. Confirm the instrument manufacturer, model, block format and protocol with Globe Scientific before ordering or testing a sample.

Plate construction at a glance

Which skirt style fits your workflow?

Use this overview to understand the primary differences, then use the selector above to identify specific item numbers.

Plate style Best suited for Available formats Key advantage
No Skirt Routine PCR, flexible workflows and specialty applications 96-well; 0.1 mL and 0.2 mL Maximum accessibility, including cuttable and chimney-top options
Half Skirt Broad thermal-cycler compatibility 96-well; 0.1 mL and 0.2 mL Balances handling stability with access to the plate edges
Full Skirt Stable handling and compatible automated workflows 96-well; 0.2 mL Rigid perimeter supports secure, repeatable plate handling
384-Well High-throughput PCR and qPCR workflows ABI®- and Roche®-style formats Higher reaction density and efficient plate processing

Instrument compatibility matters. Skirt style, well volume, notch configuration and plate profile must match the thermal cycler and block. Use the selector above or request compatibility assistance before ordering.

More ways to match the workflow

Specialized plate options when standard is not enough

Globe's PCR range includes application-specific formats alongside its core clear and white plate offering.

Assorted-color no-skirt PCR plates

Assorted-Color Plates

Available in selected 0.2 mL no-skirt and ABI-type half-skirt formats for convenient visual organization.

Cuttable no-skirt PCR plate

Cuttable No-Skirt Plate

Ideal when a workflow requires more reactions than a strip tube but fewer than a full 96-well plate.

Chimney-top PCR plate

Chimney-Top Plate

A specialized no-skirt configuration compatible with MegaBACE® capillary DNA sequencers.

Engineered for PCR performance

Details that support consistent workflows

Efficient heat transferUniform 0.2 mm ultra-thin walls support optimal temperature transfer and reaction efficiency.
Secure sealingRaised well rims support optimal sealing with strip caps, sealing mats or sealing film.
Easy identificationClear wells support sample visualization, while alphanumeric indexing helps users locate wells quickly.
Tested cleanlinessCertified free of detectable DNase, RNase, Human DNA and PCR inhibitors, and tested pyrogen-free.
