Great results with this product and we have had it for many years!

 

Average Rating 4.7

Application Area:

ELISA for small molecule screening

We achieve high quality and reproducible results most of the time. We have however, on multiple occasions had the micro tubes being clogged even though proper maintenance had been performed on the instruments.

Application Area:

Used to move plates onto plate washer

This stacker is fantastic at moving stacks of plates into and out of the associated plate washer. It also de-lids plates which is a necessary component for my cell based assay plates.

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Use in ELISA Assays

The product is easy to use and provides the ability to scale up the plates used in the assay due to the automation abilities of the stacker. Result are reproducible with the replicates that are run in the assays.

Application Area:

Handling and De-lidding Plates for the Multiflo and Synergy4 Plate Reader

The stacker is consistent and never has any issues. I like the wrist action. The one thing that seems inefficient is the lidding and de-lidding I feel like there are a lot of extra movements that could save time if it was more efficient, but overall the operation never has issues and it is easy to use.

Great addition for washing multiple plates.

 

Average Rating 4.3

Application Area:

ELISA Development

This is a great addition to the BioTek plate washer, if you are washing more than 2-3 plates on a routine basis. It frees up your time to prepare the reagents for the next step. However, if you are running a single plate, it can get a little annoying. It needs to cycle itself before it moves the first plate and this adds time to the process. The BioStack can be attached to the washer several different ways and this may allow you to by-pass the equipment for washing a single plate.

Great instrument - will highly recommend it.

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Plates coating for ELISA assay, plates washing

This is a great instrument. We use it for ELISA assays - plates coating, plates washing during assay run. Easy to use, reliable, easy to take care of. Instruments (we have 2) are used daily and we can't run ELISA assays without using them. The only thing I will change - black paint. Sometimes we saw some tiny black paint particles in my plates when we were using stand to load plates. I think silver metal will look good too - or maybe you simply need to change paint?
