Product description

Precise aligning and sealing device for QuantStudio OpenArray plates in qPCR workflows.

The Applied Biosystems OpenArray Plate Press 2 (Ref: A24945) is a specialized accessory designed for Real-Time PCR (qPCR) applications, offering precise alignment and sealing of QuantStudio OpenArray plates and TaqMan OpenArray Genotyping Plates. This compact device integrates a built-in timer and status indicator, ensuring consistent and reproducible plate sealing critical for molecular diagnostics and biotechnological workflows such as gene expression analysis and genotyping assays.

Key technical details include:

  • Compatibility with QuantStudio OpenArray and TaqMan Genotyping Plates, essential in molecular biology and bioprocessing environments
  • Battery-powered operation (2 AA batteries), eliminating the need for software or external power sources and enhancing portability
  • Dimensions: 5" W × 6" D × 5" H; Weight: approx. 2.3 kg (5 lbs), suitable for limited benchtop space in clinical and research laboratories
  • The device aligns and seals plates without compromising sample integrity, improving throughput and precision in fluorescence-based qPCR analyses

Widely adopted in biomedical engineering and synthetic biology research, this plate press is critical in biopharmaceutical production pipelines requiring high-throughput, reliable sealing of microfluidic PCR plates. Its user-friendly design makes it indispensable for laboratories focusing on molecular diagnostics, gene editing verification, and biomanufacturing quality control, ensuring failure-free plate preparation and sample containment crucial for downstream live-cell imaging and fluorescence analysis.

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?

Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that 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.
