CapitalBio SmartArrayer™ 136—— A High-throughput Plate-ready Microarray Spotter

Description

Equipped with dual systems for contact printing and non-contact dispensing, CapitalBio SmartArrayer™ 136 is designed for large-scale microarray printing of up to 136 slides simultaneously. The multi-purpose microarray spotter prints liquid samples on various substrates, such as glass, silicon, microplates or membranes, with high precision and maximum flexibility.

Key Features

  • Higher capacity for slide loading (136) or plate loading (16~17) in a single round to meet the needs of large-scale microarray production
  • High speed X, Y, Z motion at 300mm/sec velocity and 3,000mm/sec2 acceleration if 32 pins are fitted
  • Proprietary non-contact dispensing technology
  • Dispense volume is adjustable from 10 nl to 50 μl
  • Air pressure-driven dispensing ensures no direct contact with slide substrates for less contamination and higher sample recovery rates
  • User-friendly software interface with various array design selections and array previews
  • High efficiency pinhead wash: customizable combination of sonication, water/solvent wash with high speed peristaltic pump and vacuum drying of printing pins
  • Advanced environment control with hepa filtered air and humidity control
