Application

2D and 3D cell culture to concentration normalization assays, ELISA, magnetic bead-based assays for 96 and 384 wells

Features and Benefits

  • Multimode dispensing accommodates many functions, replacing multiple instruments in one compact, easy to use system.
  • Automated Media Exchange (AMX) provides gentle washing of spheroids and suspension cells without disturbing 2D or 3D structures, preserving assay integrity.
  • MILLIPLEX® washing application enables precise bead washing and buffer exchange for multiplex assays, ensuring reliable results.
  • Random Access Dispense (RAD) enables custom mapped dispensing to individual wells, ideal for concentration normalization assays and reducing setup time.
  • Custom manifolds allow full configuration of dispense/aspirate tube positioning, fluid flow rate, and wash parameters for flexible operation.
  • Parallel Dispense technology supports up to four reagents in parallel without carryover, ensuring efficient and versatile dispensing.
  • Cell friendly angled dispense tips deliver reagents gently down well sides, protecting cell layers and improving assay performance even in multi step workflows.
