BENEFITS:

1. INCREASE 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 and the available 384-well plat adapters.

2. 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.

3. 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.

COMMON APPLICATIONS:

• PCR/QPCR: Plate transfers.
• ELISA: Simultaneous processing of nearly all reaction steps in microtiter plates (coating, starting, stopping, washing, etc.).
• CELL CULTURE: Addition and removal of culture media and plate replication.
• DRUG COMPOUND SCREENING: Addition of cells, biomolecules, and compounds to 96- and 384- well microplates.
• CRYSTALLOGRAPHY: Drop-wise addition of solutions.
• ENHANCEMENT OF EXISTING AUTOMATION: Assay development and adaptation to 96-channel systems, backup solutions for maintenance, and downtime.
