Automated Microplate Washer

BioTek's flexible ELx50 microplate strip washer automates complex washing steps in many 96-well-based assays, such as standard ELISA, biomagnetic bead separation, and polystyrene vacuum filtration including Luminex xMap multiPlex assay technology.

Other applications include vacuum filter-to-waste for PCR cleanup, washing in cell-based assays, and washing protein arrays spotted in microplate wells.

This version of the automated microplate washer provides a modular 3-in-1 platform, bridging the gap between manual washing and higher throughput automated systems.

The system uses a microprocessor-controlled syringe fluid system for precise control over multiple flow rates. Each unit features integrated dispense and aspirate pumps.

High-strength biomagnetic separation offers micrometer- and nanometer-bead retention in flat-bottom, round-bottom, and half-area microplates. Fully adjustable vacuum filtration accommodated a range of polystyrene beads washing with filter-bottom plates, including filter-to-waste processing when used with various filter pore sizes and sample viscosities.
