Micro B Processor™Fully-Automated Microarray Processor
Practical and easy to use microplate processor, which offers advanced heating and cooling to within +/- 1.0 degree centigrade or better per well for standard sciPLEXPLATE 96 from Scienion or compatible microplates.The system can potentially accommodate both clear and white plates, ask for details.
A special incubator provides shaking with an overhead heater to minimise evaporation for low volumes.
Liquid handling is performed via four micro-stepping controlled piston pumps, with tip picking and separate aspirating needles for washing the wells. The microplate is automatically tilted for aspiration to avoid touching the microarray at the bottom of the well during aspiration.
An integral camera can image the wells at the end of the assay and save the images in various formats for interpretation by third party software. The camera system can be set up to image from above or below the microplate well.
Pre-heating or cooling is provided for the sample plate and reagents as required. Also on the deck there is a position for the disposable tips, waste, and tip waste basket.
The operator interface is via a 12" touchscreen and user friendly software where the operator can select various assays to run on the instrument.
There is an integral industrial PC which allows for connection to LIMS.
