Radio frequency identification (RFID) labels with a thin design, for the identification of microplates, petri dishes, cell culture plates, and high-throughput qPCR/PCR plates. These thermal-transfer labels have an integrated flexible UHF inlay for 360° scanning, without the need for direct line of sight. RFID-PlateTAG™ labels are perfect for use in high-throughput screening, and are compatible with automated liquid handlers.
