AquaMax Microplate Washer
Microplate washers for biochemical and cell-based assays
Efficient cell washing with minimal cell loss and optimal assay performance
The AquaMax® Microplate Washer is a fully self-contained system, configurable for both 96- and 384-well microplates. Use preconfigured wash, soak, and aspiration protocols or create your own multi-step protocol using the simple touchscreen interface. For biochemical assays, the washer removes unbound material and unreacted reagents. For cell-based assays, the washer has the option for 96- or 384-well cell wash heads with angled pins to allow extremely gentle washing of weakly adherent cell types.
Install easily
The washer does not require external pumps or a computer to operate, minimizing bench space. Interchangeable wash heads can be installed in seconds without tools, calibration, or alignment.
Eliminate plate indexing
Aspiration and dispensing of 96- and 384-wells occur simultaneously in all wells leading to high-precision assays and faster microplate processing without mechanical plate indexing or quadrant processing.
Run multiple wash protocols
Two- or four-fluid inlets with matching color-coded tubing facilitate quick assembly of the buffer and solution bottles and allow multiple wash protocols to be run without switching bottles.
Features
Trouble-free operation
Comprehensive cleaning protocols can be activated at the touch of a button for trouble-free operation. A standby feature keeps the washer primed and probe tips submersed in buffer for instant startup.
Versatility
Precise dispense and aspiration control allow processing without cell disruption. Fast sequential, continuous, and bottom washing options reduce wash times to a minimum.
Flexibility
By using automatically-detected, interchangeable 96 and 384 wash heads, the AquaMax washer configures easily to meet current and future, higher-density microplate application requirements.
Automation
The washer is easy to integrate with the latest automation tools. It is compatible with the Molecular Devices StakMax® Microplate Stacker and many robotic plate handlers.
