Product news

The MAP-C2 60-plate workstation is designed to meet the challenges of the busy clinical chemistry lab. It can wash, dispense, shake, incubate and, when furnished with microplate reader, read 96 and 384 well plates in unattended mode. The built-in microplate stacker also provides walk-away automation of samples processing in batches of 60 plates.

The MAP-C2 base model is equipped with a dual direct drive syringe assembly. Three additional auxiliary Dispense Modules, furnished with two syringe drives each, may be added in order to accommodate complex assay procedures as well as reduce the microplate processing time. Dispense manifolds with 8 and 16 tips allow rapid dispensing in the 96 and 384 well plates. For precise low volume delivery, the MAP-C2 may be equipped with our unique 4-in-1 Syringe assembly with an individual liquid path and dispense tip for each syringe. The optional Multiple Inlet Reagent Station facilitates an addition of up to 8 different reagents using the same syringes.

To further increase the assay processing flexibility, MAP-C2 can accommodate both 96-channel wash head and column wash hardware.

Stop by Booth 1101 and find out how the MAP-C2 workstation can meet your needs. Also, ask about other products for liquid handling and lab automation.

MicroplatesMicroplates are multi-well plates used to increase the throughput of biological investigations. The number of wells microplates contain can range from 6 to 3243 wells, with the 96-well format being the most commonly used. Microplates can come tailored for a range of applications including cell culture, PCR, filtration, storage, non-binding surface, protein crystallization, as well as pre-coated, deep well and normal Standard microplates. Additionally, options for microplate colors include clear , black, white or black with clear bottom and white with clear bottom for absorbance microplate reader applications.

Explore a range of manual and electronic pipettes, including single and multichannel, serological and volumetric pipettes, as well as a range of pipette tips. Bottle-top dispensers are also available for simple and fast solvent dispensing.

Assay assembly requires chip assembly, a delivery system and a detection and analysis method. Beneficial features of assay kits or automated systems include high-throughput, high speed and sensitivity and low signal to noise ratio.High-Content ScreeningHigh-content screening (HCS), also known as high-content analysis (HCA), is a high-throughput technique used in drug discovery to identify substances that alter the phenotype of cells. HCS uses fluorescent microscopic imaging and automated image analysis to investigate cellular events such as apoptosis, cell viability, GPCR activation, oxide production, neurite outgrowth, and cell signaling.
