Thermal Block for Microplate

Quick Answer: The Thermal Block for Microplate is a metal block that holds a microplate in close contact so every well is warmed or cooled evenly; the photo shows a grey block with a fitted cover beside a dark frame holding a white plate.

Even Temperature Across a Plate

A microplate is a thin plastic tray, and when it sits on an uneven surface the wells at the edges run at a different temperature from those in the centre. That is one cause of the edge effect seen in assays, where outer wells give different readings because they warm, cool or evaporate differently. A thermal block for microplate work supports the plate from underneath with metal, so heat passes evenly into every well.

The photo shows two parts: a grey cover and a black frame carrying a white plate. A cover over the plate keeps warm air around it and slows evaporation from the outer wells, which matters during long incubations. The block is used on a dry bath or other heater that accepts it, or pre-chilled to keep a plate cold while samples are added.

Plates differ in footprint and in bottom shape, whether flat, round, V or skirted PCR, and the block has to match both the plate and the heater. For a heater that also takes tube blocks, the Block for Tubes or Microplates listing covers plate blocks too.

Applications

ELISA and other plate assays incubated at 37 °C
Enzyme kinetics in plates, keeping all wells at one temperature
Keeping a plate cold while samples and reagents are dispensed
Warming cell-based assay plates briefly outside the incubator

Specifications

Type	Thermal block for microplates
Pictured parts	Grey cover and dark plate frame holding a plate
Function	Even warming or cooling of all wells
Use with	A dry bath or heater that accepts the block, or pre-chilled
Plate type and heater fit	Confirm at enquiry

Care & Handling

Place the plate flat in the frame so every well touches the block evenly.
Keep the cover on during incubations to limit evaporation from outer wells.
Wipe the block and frame with mild detergent and dry them, taking care not to scratch the contact surface.

Why Choose LabEquip

Immunology, biochemistry and teaching labs running plate assays buy a microplate block to cut edge effects and to use their existing heater for plates. Blocks and heaters are listed in General Lab Products; send your heater and plate type through the contact page to match the block.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the edge effect, and how does the block help?

Outer wells of a plate often warm, cool and evaporate differently from inner wells, which skews assay results. Metal contact under the whole plate and a cover over it keep all wells closer to the same temperature.

Which plates fit the block?

The block must match the plate’s footprint and bottom shape, whether flat, round, V or skirted PCR. Tell us the plate you use so the block can be matched.

Can the block be used to keep a plate cold?

Yes, metal blocks are often pre-chilled so that a plate stays cold while reagents are added. Dry off condensation before placing the plate.

Why use a cover during incubation?

A cover keeps warm air over the plate and reduces evaporation from the outer wells, which is a main source of edge effects in long incubations.

Does the block work on any dry bath?

No, it has to fit the heater’s block recess or plate position. Give the heater model when ordering.

How is the block cleaned?

When it is at room temperature, wipe the block and frame with a mild detergent solution, then with a damp cloth, and dry them. Avoid abrasive pads on the contact surface.

Tube Block

Quick Answer: The Tube Block is a metal block with rows of wells for straight-sided laboratory tubes, used in a dry bath to heat samples or pre-chilled to keep them cold; the photo shows it with a clear cover and a dark base tray.

A Block for Everyday Tubes

Where the Block for Conical Tube is shaped for tapered tips, this block has straight or round-bottomed wells for ordinary tubes. The photo shows a grey block with evenly spaced wells in rows, set in a dark tray and covered by a transparent lid. The cover keeps warm or cold air around the tubes and dust out of the wells; a cover for tube blocks is also listed on its own, so whether the pictured cover is included should be checked.

Metal blocks are useful cold as well as hot. A block pre-chilled in a refrigerator holds tubes near its own temperature for a useful time on the bench, which suits enzyme set-ups and samples that must stay cold during pipetting. On a dry bath, the same kind of block gives even heat to every tube.

Tube diameter and the number of wells are not given in the title, and the block must suit the heater if it is to be used on one. Matching the well size to your tubes gives the close contact that makes any block work.

Uses on the Bench

Keeping enzyme reactions cold while they are assembled
Heating tubes evenly in a dry bath for incubations
Holding thawed samples at a steady temperature while aliquoting
Carrying tubes between bench and instrument in a stable, covered block

Specifications

Type	Metal block for straight-sided tubes
Pictured with	Clear cover and dark base tray
Use	On a dry bath for heating, or pre-chilled for cold work
Wells	Rows of evenly spaced wells, as pictured
Tube size, well count and heater fit	Confirm at enquiry

Care & Handling

Dry the block and wells after cold use, because condensation collects in them.
Pre-chill or pre-warm the block before adding tubes, so samples do not sit at room temperature.
Clean the cover with mild detergent and a soft cloth, and keep solvents off it.

Why Choose LabEquip

Molecular biology and biochemistry labs keep a block like this for both cold set-ups and heated incubations. Blocks, covers and heaters are in General Lab Products; ask through the contact page about well sizes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this block differ from the conical version?

It has straight or round-bottomed wells for ordinary tubes, while the conical version tapers its wells to fit centrifuge tube tips. Use the block whose wells match your tubes.

Can the block be used cold?

Metal blocks are commonly pre-chilled in a refrigerator to keep tubes cold on the bench. Check that the block and any cover suit freezer use before putting them in a freezer, and wipe away condensation afterwards.

Is the clear cover included?

The photo shows the block with a cover and base tray, and a cover for tube blocks is also sold separately. Ask us to confirm what is included when you enquire.

Why do tubes warm up quickly on the bench?

The block drifts towards room temperature once it leaves the refrigerator. Keep the cover on, work quickly and return the block to the cold between steps.

How is the right well size chosen?

Measure your tubes’ outside diameter and length and match them to the wells. A snug fit gives good contact; a loose fit leaves an air gap that slows heating and cooling.

How should the block be cleaned?

Rinse the wells with mild detergent, then dry the block thoroughly, especially after cold use when water collects in the wells. Store it dry to avoid corrosion.
