Automatic extractor utilises a simple principle of two pipetting heads serving a 96-well plate.
Thanks to easy replacement head options of pipetting with 300 μl tips or 1000 μl tips are available. Automatic optical sensor calibration enables the use of pipetting tips and 96-well plates from virtually any supplier. The device is equipped with two magnetic arms for protocols including paramagnetic SPR beads. It also allows for thermal incubation in the range of 25 to 85 °C. In addition to internal LED lighting, the station is equipped with an integrated UV-C sterilisation unit. Intuitive control from TFT touch panel user interface facilitates easy set-up. xTrovert™ XT is a fully programmable open system where user can create their own workflow scripts downloadable as text files from USB flas disk.
