Detail
Overview
Perforated heat sealing film which is optically clear. This seal has 3 mm slits for gas transfer; is suitable for insect studies and seed storage too.
Heat sealing is a quick and cost effective method of plate sealing
Our ClearASeal Perf Heat Seal is based on our ClearASeal Peel, with the addition of 3 mm slits across the width of the seal
These slits render the seal gas permeable, whilst retaining evaporation to a minimum, compared to the use of lids
The ClearASeal Perf Heat Seal is compatible with polypropylene, polyethylene, polystyrene and cyclic olefin copolymer (COC) plates
The Seal has a wide seal integrity temperature range, from -80 °C to 110 °C
It can be used for insect and seed storage, as it enables gas exchange, whilst providing an inert surface with no adhesive to interfere with the well contents
This seal is available as sheets, for use with manual and semi-automated sealers, such as our HeatASeal 500 Sealing Machine
Also available in roll format compatible with specified automated heat sealers, such as our Wasp or Chameleon XT

Introduction
Usages: For count, isolation and cultivation of mould and yeast.
Principle: Peptone provides the carbon and nitrogen; glucose to provide energy; potassium dihydrogen phosphate as a buffer; agar as medium coagulant; chloramphenicol inhibit the growth of bacteria; Bengal as selective antibacterial agents inhibit the growth of bacteria.
How to use: 1.Suspend 31.6g in 1 L of distilled water , stirring heated to boiling until completely dissolved, dispensing flask, 121 ℃ autoclave for 15min. 2.Diluted and treated samples.
Storage: Keep container tightly closed, store in a cool, dry place, away from bright light. Storage period of 3 years.
Includes pre-loaded beads for effective sample homogenization by bead beating (tubes are fully compatible with commercially available bead beating systems)
DNA preservation at room temperature over 2 years
Ship fecal samples at room temperature safely
Compatible with most DNA isolation methods
Norgen’s Fecal DNA Collection & Preservation Mini Tubes are designed for the rapid preservation of DNA from fresh fecal specimens. These tubes contain Norgen’s Fecal DNA Preservative in a liquid format. Moreover, each collection tube is preloaded with beads for effective sample homogenization in any commercially available bead beater equipment (e.g. MP Biomedicals’ FastPrep®-24). The user simply collects fecal samples into the tubes and mixes by shaking or vortexing until the feces is mixed well with preservative. The preservative prevents the growth of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria and fungi, and also inactivates viruses allowing the resulting non-infectious samples to be handled and shipped safely. In addition, the preservative eliminates the need to immediately process or freeze samples and allows the samples to be shipped to centralized testing facilities at ambient temperatures. The components of the preservative allow the DNA in the samples to be preserved at room temperature for over 2 years.
This kit is highly suited to collection and preservation of fecal material from mouse, hamster, chinchilla, rabbit and more for microbiome studies and other applications.
DNA Isolation from Preservative
Fecal samples collected and preserved in Norgen’s Fecal DNA Collection and Preservation Mini Tubes are compatible with most fecal DNA isolation methods. Samples stored in the tubes have been used successfully with all of Norgen Biotek’s stool-based DNA isolation kits (please refer to Related Products table) and reagents.
