BioTek announces that the ELx405 Microplate Washer is now available with vacuum filtration and biomagnetic separation modules to meet the demand for automated washing of microbead-based assays.
Full 96- and 384-well microplate washing for bead-based assays, as well as standard ELISAs, is available for those who are incorporating various assay types.
The ELx405’s variable-range vacuum filtration module automates polystyrene bead washing for microplate-based assays developed with multiplex assay platforms along with filtration-to-waste processes.
The biomagnetic separation module is designed to provide uniform separation of micrometer- and nanometer-scale magnetic beads for Luminex xMAP® assay platforms. Each can also be formatted to wash ELISA and cell-based assays.
ELx405 models feature choice of keypad control or flexible Liquid Handling Control™ PC software, integration into various robotic systems including BioTek’s BioStack Microplate Stacker.
Also available are a patented Dual-Action™ wash manifold, automated four-buffer switching, and patent-pending Ultrasonic Advantage™ for unattended wash manifold maintenance.
