Product description

Compact OpenArray Plate Press 2 aligns and seals QuantStudio OpenArray plates for reliable qPCR sample preparation.

The Applied Biosystems OpenArray Plate Press 2 (Model A24945) is a precision device engineered specifically for real-time PCR (qPCR) workflows, particularly those employing the QuantStudio OpenArray platform. This plate press facilitates accurate alignment and consistent sealing of OpenArray plate cases and lids immediately after sample loading, ensuring sample integrity for downstream molecular diagnostics and gene expression analysis.

  • Compatibility: Supports OpenArray Plates and TaqMan OpenArray Genotyping Plates, making it essential for high-throughput genotyping assays and bioprocessing workflows.
  • Functional Design: Incorporates a built-in timer and status indicator for reproducible sealing without reliance on external software, enhancing lab workflow efficiency.
  • Power Source: Operates on 2 AA batteries dedicated for timer and indicator function, providing a portable and convenient solution for laboratory use.
  • Physical Dimensions & Portability: Compact footprint measuring approximately 5" W x 6" D x 5" H and weighing roughly 5 pounds, optimized for benchtop placement in molecular biology or biotechnology labs.

This device is widely adopted in synthetic biology research, molecular cloning workflows, and biomanufacturing environments, where precise plate sealing is critical for consistent qPCR amplification and fluorescence detection. It supports biotechnology applications including molecular diagnostics and genetic analyses, reinforcing its role in advanced biomedical engineering studies.

Its ergonomic and compact design, along with compatibility with major OpenArray consumables, makes the OpenArray Plate Press 2 indispensable in laboratories focusing on gene editing verification, molecular screening, and high-throughput genotyping assays.

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.
