Pierceable aluminum foil seals

Peelable plate seals are highly beneficial for preparing and storing reservoirs. Specifically, aluminum foil can be pierced by pipette tips, eliminating the need to peel off the seal, which could otherwise lead to unwanted well contamination or spillage. Additionally, foil seals protect light-sensitive reagents. Pro-tip: If you are going to store sealed plates use a roller tool to really make sure the edges are sealed tightly or else you may get evaporation!
