Agilent Automation Solutions has announced a new low profile, 384-well format conductive rack enabling nested disposable tips to be used on the Bravo Liquid Handling Platfom and Vertical Pipetting Station.
The company claims that the new ANSI standard format rack offers 300% space savings over a traditional tipbox, requiring less tip box changes and produces less waste. Additionally it can offer the flexibility of top- or bottom- loading stack compatibility. A long skirt and lead-in features allow easy loading of additional nested tip racks improving throughput and walk-away time.
Manufactured to exacting specifications under stringent quality assurance guidelines all racks provide the sturdiness required by automation equipment, and the 30µl tips are designed to provide exceptional liquid handling performance. In addition, all tips are certified to be DNAse and RNAse free. Sterile and Non-Sterile versions are available.
