Multidrop 384 / Titan Stacker
The newest addition to Titertek's popular Multidrop line is the Multidrop 384 / Titan Stacker. This instrument combines the laboratory standard Multidrop 384 with the Titan Stacker, a fourth generation instrument that builds on Titertek's reliable plate stacking technology.
The Multidrop 384 / Titan Stacker performs plate dispensing to both 96 well and 384 well plates. With the individual inlet lines on the Multidrop cassette, up to eight different reagents can be dispensed into different rows. The number of columns per plate and the dispense volume are switch selectable.
Using the standard S30 magazines, rapid processing of up to 30 plates can be accomplished on either plate format without user intervention. If the unit is equipped with the optional S60 magazines, up to 60 plates may be processed. Autoclavable dispensing cassettes, peristaltic pumping and small footprint make this unit ideal for cell dispensing in or out of a laboratory hood.
- Single axis plate shuttle provides highest throughput.
- Small instrument footprint - can easily fit in most standard laboratory hoods.
- 20/30/60 plate interchangeable magazines are compatible with other Titertek equipment.
- Permanent drain eases priming operations and provides uninterrupted, large batch processing.
- Removable, autoclavable, dispensing cassettes can be easily changed between reagents.
- Unit allows both 96 well and 384 well dispensing in a volume range of 5µl to 395µl.
