From the foregoing discussion, we can conclude that the ideal microplates
for PCR application are those that can effectively transfer heat to the
reaction mixture. All of the results from the above experiments point
towards this characteristic of twin.tec plates, which make them a perfect
choice for all temperature-sensitive applications
Conclusions
Eppendorf twin.tec plates offer many advantages over other PCR plates in the market. Primarily, twin.tec plates increase specific yields of some PCR products to a greater extent than the competing plates. This increase in yield is probably due to the excellent heat transfer properties of twin.tec plates, which are evidenced by the above temperature recordings. The superior performances of twin.tec PCR plates, combined with their structural rigidity, make them an excellent choice for all 96-well PCR applications.
