A must have instrument for all screening labs!
Compound screening, supernatant collection, HTRF assays
Plate Mater is an easy to use instrument that can save a lot of time. We have two of them, one for range 20-200 ul, another for 2-20 ul and use them to collect our supernatant from 384- or 96-well plates, perform HTRF or other reporter assays. Since we have Plate Masters we have significantly increased our screening throughput. Consumables are not very expensive; pipette tips are comparable in price with the tips we normally use in the lab. The price is very good! For the labs that perform routine assays in 96- or 384- well format it is a must have instrument.

Biology
This PlateMaster is really easy to use. I saw a demonstration on the Miptech in Basel last year and so I've ordered on and received it for Christmas (nice gift!). It was so simple and easy to use that a lot of my colleagues wanted to have one! Some of them ordered one for them self (the price is very interesting too). And now a few months later we have several people using this helpful machine. I really would recommend this product!

Increase the Productivity of Your Workflows
The PLATEMASTER’s 96-channel design greatly reduces the number of pipetting steps necessary to fill a microplate when compared to using regular manual multichannel pipettes. When using PLATEMASTER, the time it takes to fill 96-well plates is significantly reduced to approximately 10-20 seconds or less, and 384-wells can typically be filled in less than a minute using only four pipetting steps.
Increased Accuracy, Precision, and Reproducibility
Using PLATEMASTER for higher throughput applications reduces the risk of human error. In a single motion, accuracy and precision levels can equal that of an 8- or 12-channel pipettes, while avoiding the risk of skipping or repeating wells. Additionally, all enzymatic reactions and cell-based applications across all wells can be started and stopped at the same time. From 0.5 µL to 220 µL pipetting volumes, expect improved well-to-well and plate-to-plate reproducibility.
Versatile and Easy to Use
PLATEMASTER is as intuitive as a PIPETMAN® and does not require programming, long training, or power for use. Through a variety of accessories, such as adapters for loading 384-well microplates, reagent reservoirs, or sample heater blocks, PLATEMASTER can be fully adapted to a variety of application needs. Its compact and portable design easily integrates into the lab, allowing it to fit on most benchtops, under hoods, or in cold rooms.

CRISPR/Cas9 Genetic Engineering – How Gilson Manual and Automated Pipetting Tools Facilitate the Process
CRISPR/Cas9 technology is a cutting-edge gene-engineering tool, that allows the rapid and precise editing of genetic sequences in a wide range of organisms. As with many techniques in modern molecular biology, CRISPR/ Cas9 workflows are dominated by pipetting, liquid handling and the complexing and delivery of key reagents. This application note demonstrates how Gilson products enable the high level of accuracy and precision required for all levels of a CRISPR/Cas experimental workflow.
PLATEMASTER® and EXTRACTMAN®: Rapid Enrichment and Clonal Selection of CRISPR Modified Cells
CRISPR is changing the face of how scientists are exploring new drug targets and uncovering how diseases work at the genetic level. However, as with any biological system, CRISPR is not 100% efficient, requiring screening to identify and isolate the cell or strain carrying the desired modification. EXTRACTMAN® enables rapid isolation of proteins that bind to an antibody-coated paramagnetic particle, and is a fast and efficient tool that can be used to enrich populations of CRISPR modified cells when an antigen based selection marker is used.
Affordable digital dispensing for dose-response studies
Gilson and Funai are excited to announce the launch of the Gilson Digital Dispenser this year. This innovative new offering is a non-contact dispenser capable of dispensing DMSO and aqueous solutions from pL to uL. The large dynamic range makes it ideal for dose-response studies, serial dilutions, and assay miniaturization.
In this SelectScience webinar, our attending experts will demonstrate the functionality of the new Gilson Digital Dispenser with a cell-based assay example. During which, HEK 293 cells were dosed with doxorubicin from 0.00032 to 10 µM concentrations, and viability at 48 hours was quantified using Promega CellTiter-Glo® Luminescent Cell Viability Assay.
Key learning objectives:
- Explore affordable digital dispensing solutions from Gilson and Funai
- Discover how these dispensing solutions can be used within a cell-based assay
