1. Place the 96-well plate on a 96-well plate rack, and load samples.

2. Apply a pierceable aluminum sealing film(this or similar) on the plate and seal it using a sealer machine or simply with a soft rubber roller(like this). Mark the assigned plate#. Note: DO NOT use polymer sealing films, which easily deform and cause leaking during shipping.

3. Pack the sealed 96-well plate(s) in a box with proper packing materials, to prevent the plate(s) from bending/deforming, being pierced, and /or other damages during shipping. The box is ready to pack in the shipping container and it can be shipped on cold pack or dry ice.
