* "Concord" microplates are made from polycarbonate plastic, which is prone to poor sealing and
vapor leakage during stringent thermal cycling.
** Since plates may adhere tightly to the Microseal 'P+' pad, this seal is only recommended for use
with the Moto Alpha
™
motorized unit, which has the ability to hold the plate in the block.
