Recently, a Japanese pharmaceutical firm named BioChromato Inc. has developed a RAPID Slit Seals that are more efficient compared to traditional silicone mats for retaining the reliability of microplate samples. Generally, the firm’s pharmacokinetics used a mass spectrometer with an autosampler having 96-well microplates for biological sampling. Though the silicone mats were used its high cost and need for constant cleaning of the silicone plate seals due to fear of contamination of biological samples were the major concerning factors. Thus, the development of RAPID Slit Seals that are disposable is likely to reduce chances of contamination as well as lower costs.
One of the interesting features of the new disposable plate seals is the closing of autosampler injection hole. Furthermore, the use of volatile solvent, including acetonitrile, in the RAPID Slit Seals helped lower solvent evaporation rate, thereby maintaining sample integrity and the legitimacy of repeat analyses. It has been proven that this self-sealing microplate has the ability to return to its native state when closed with an HPLC or LC/MS autosampler. This reduction in the loss of solvents is very helpful for the pharmaceutical industries testing biological samples for drug development and other medical purposes.
The self-sealing microplates are a breakthrough that the pharmacology field has been waiting for. This new invention is likely to lower the high risks of contamination and integrity of the samples for a longer time. The significant benefits offered by the RAPID Slit Sealsare projected to overcome the shortcomings experienced in the silicone mats.
