BioTek's new MultiFlo™ Microplate Dispenser is the latest advancement in bulk dispensers offering up to four reagents dispensed in parallel with one compact instrument. The MultiFlo offers a choice of either peristaltic pump or microprocessor controlled syringe drive technologies. Users can purchase one channel now and add others in the future. A wide array of plate types are accommodated from 6- to 1536-well formats. The MultiFlo dispenses a broad volume range from 1 µL to 3 mL accurately and precisely with a fully modular and upgradable design. BioTek's proprietary angled dispensing ensures compatibility with all dispense protocols including media exchanges with loosely adherent cell monolayers. For assays requiring minimum reagent usage, the MultiFlo's prime volume is under 1 mL. A built-in priming trough is designed to allow both recovery of reagents or to send primed reagent directly to waste.

With a small footprint and base height of less than 8", the MultiFlo comfortably fits on any laboratory bench or robotic system. Easily integrated with a BioStack™ Microplate Stacker, up to 75 plates can be reliably dispensed by the MultiFlo with walkaway confidence. Alternatively, robotic integration of the MultiFlo to third party automated systems is seamless with available Liquid Handling Control™ Software. LHC™ additionally allows dispense protocols to be created and run from the PC or downloaded to the onboard user interface.
