Cover tapes are used to cover NC membrane in order to prevent evaporation of reagents besides offering mechanical strength to delicate test components. However, Masking Tapes are used in dipstick format to maintain good contact between the membrane-sample pad and membrane-absorbent pad. These tapes are manufactured using special adhesives which are non-reactive and non-migrating, and hence do not interfere with assay performance.
These are available in roll form and in strip form also. Different colors and sizes can be offered as per customer’s requirement.
