Product description

Device for aligning and sealing QuantStudio OpenArray plates with built-in timer, used in qPCR workflows.

The Applied Biosystems OpenArray Plate Press 2.0 (Model A24945) is a specialized laboratory device designed for precise aligning and sealing of QuantStudio OpenArray plates and cases after sample loading, facilitating consistent preparation of samples for Real-Time PCR (qPCR) assays. This unit integrates a built-in timer and status indicator, allowing reproducible sealing critical for molecular diagnostics and biotechnological workflows such as gene expression analysis, genotyping, and synthetic biology research.

Key technical features include:

  • Compatibility with QuantStudio OpenArray Plates and TaqMan OpenArray Genotyping Plates, essential in molecular biology and bioprocessing pipelines.
  • Operation powered by 2 AA batteries for the status indicator and timer eliminates the need for external software or electrical connections, increasing laboratory flexibility.
  • Compact dimensions (~5" W × 6" D × 5" H) and lightweight design (~5 lb / 2.3 kg) support easy integration within standard laboratory benchtops.
  • Optimized for workflow consistency in molecular diagnostics and biomanufacturing environments where precise and reliable plate sealing is critical for downstream qPCR accuracy.

This plate press is widely adopted in biotechnology research, including molecular cloning workflows and high-throughput genotyping, making it a valuable instrument for scientists and clinical professionals focused on synthetic biology, gene editing applications, and biomedical engineering. Its robust design and user-friendly interface support reproducible and efficient sample preparation for quantitative PCR analysis, a cornerstone technique in modern molecular biology and bioprocessing laboratories.

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.
