SecureSeal™ Hybridization Chambers
SECURESEAL™ HYBRIDIZATION CHAMBERS
SecureSeal™ Hybridization Chambers are thin, silicone-gasketed chambers providing optimal surface-to-volume fluid dynamics for hybridization assays on large or multiple specimens and microarrays on glass or film coated slides. These adhesive-backed chambers are designed for single-use, very-low volume incubations and are ideal for autoradiographic, fluorescent or chemiluminescent end-point applications requiring small, enclosed fluid volumes. SecureSeal™ Adhesive is a double-sided tape with a silicone adhesive surface on one side (covered with a clear PET liner) and an acrylic adhesive on the other surface (covered with a paper liner).
SecureSeal™ chambers form removable, peel-and-stick enclosures to isolate specimens affixed to glass microscope slides. The chamber design minimizes friction, promotes reagent mixing, and facilitates uniform hybridization. Sealable access ports in the chamber surface allow for the addition and removal of reactants. SecureSeal™ adhesive bonds chambers to glass in seconds and removes cleanly and easily even after heating. Adhesive Seal Tabs create leak-proof chambers that are temperature resistant. Each package includes illustrated instructions for use and 120 adhesive port seals. Additional seal tabs are sold separately (SKU: 629200).

SecureSeal Chambers
Adhesive seal tabs complement SecureSeal™ Hybridization Chambers, HybriWell™ Sealing System and CoverWell™ Perfusion Chambers. Once the paper liner is removed, the SecureSeal adhesive is exposed and the tab could easily be applied on top of a chamber's port. A slight pressure on the adhesive tab is sufficient to create leak-proof chambers that are temperature resistant. Adhesive Seal Tabs are easily detached to allow addition or removal of reagents from the chamber. Adhesive Seal tabs are autoclavable.
