FAQ

Question	Answer
My recoveries with the MultiScreen₃₈₄-PCR plate are lower than expected. How can I improve them?	Here a few things to check: Make sure the vacuum is set to 10"Hg. For detergent free PCR buffers, dilute sample up to 100ul prior to filtration. Make sure the product is filtered to dryness. This will take at least 15 minutes. Ensure adequate mixing by either automated pipetting or agitation on a shaker.
Will mineral oil be removed by the MultiScreen 384-PCR plate?	No. Oil will resuspend with PCR products. All 384 thermocyclers use "Hot Bonnet" technology, however, eliminating the need for oil.
When using the Multiscreen PCR plates, what is the minimum and maximum DNA loading capacity per well?	The minimum DNA loading capacity is one microgram per well. There is no upper limit.
What is the minimum recovery volume possible when using the MultiScreen-PCR plates?	The minimum recovery volume is 50µl. Use of smaller volumes can be used but will result in a decrease in DNA recovery.
What are the dimensions of the Multiscreen-PCR plate?	The plate length is 123.4mm. The plate width is 82.7mm. the plate depth is 14.6mm without the cover. 16.5mm with cover.
When using the Montage kits how can I tell when filtration in the MultiScreen plate is complete?	Filtration is complete when the individual wells of the MultiScreen plate are empty and the membranes appears shiny. Filtration usually takes about 10 minutes, depending on starting volume.
What is the DNA binding capacity of the MultiScreen FB for PCR purification?	The DNA binding capacity is 4-5ug per well.
When using the Montage PCR-96 kit, what is the recommended procedure for resuspension of PCR fragments post filtration?	Avoid manual pipetting. The use of a plate shaker or automated pipettor (on robotic liquid handling system) is highly recommended.
What is the minimum resuspension volume for product recovery from the Montage PCR96 Kit?	50 microliters per sample.
What is the maximum binding capacity for DNA in the PCR Product Purification protocol using the MultiScreen-FB plate?	The binding capacity of the MultiScreen FB, after treatment with "binding" buffer is 4-5ug of DNA per well.

C7479Remove primers and unincorporated dNTPs in one step

Our PCR filter plates are fast, automatable solutions for high-throughput PCR purification. Available in 96- and 384-well formats and a µ96-well format for small volumes, MultiScreen® PCR plates use a size-exclusion membrane and vacuum filtration to provide a one-step protocol with excellent results. No centrifugation or precipitation is required. Full sample recovery from the top of the plate enhances compatibility with liquid handling systems. MultiScreen® PCR_µ96 and MultiScreen®PCR₃₈₄ filter plates provide high recovery on even the smallest miniaturized reactions. Working volumes <150 µL conserve reagents and save money. For volumes >150 µL, use MultiScreen®PCR₉₆ 96-well filter plate.

Features & Benefits

High purity and high recovery
No centrifugation or precipitation
Fast processing times, automation compatible
MultiScreen® PCR_µ96 filter plate recommended for small fragments (1-150 bp)

Protocol

1.	Load PCR reactions.
2.	Filter with Millipore vacuum manifold for 5–10 minutes or until wells are dry.
3.	Add water or buffer to each well. Agitate by shaking or pipetting. Retrieve purified samples by aspiration.
