Product description

Compact device for aligning and sealing QuantStudio OpenArray plates in Real-Time PCR workflows.

The Applied Biosystems OpenArray Plate Press 2 (model A24945) is a precision instrument designed for the alignment and sealing of QuantStudio OpenArray plate cases and lids following sample loading in Real-Time PCR (qPCR) applications. Essential for molecular biology research and biotechnology workflows, this device ensures reliable and consistent sealing of OpenArray plates, including TaqMan OpenArray Genotyping Plates, which is critical for accurate fluorescence detection and gene expression analysis.

  • Compatibility: Optimized for use with QuantStudio OpenArray Plates and TaqMan OpenArray Genotyping Plates
  • Functionality: Facilitates leak-proof sealing necessary for maintaining sample integrity during thermal cycling in PCR amplification
  • Power: Operates on 2 AA batteries, allowing cordless use without the need for software integration
  • Features: Integrated timer and status indicator for process control and reproducibility
  • Dimensions: Compact footprint measuring 5" W × 6" D × 5" H, weighing approximately 5 lb (2.3 kg)
  • Application fields: Widely adopted in biotechnology, molecular diagnostics, gene editing workflows, and bioprocessing laboratories focused on synthetic biology and molecular cloning

This plate press is a vital accessory in Real-Time PCR workflows, enabling precise sample handling and enhancing downstream data quality in molecular diagnostics and biomanufacturing pipelines.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
