- new ‘touch friendly’ application driven software – quick and easy experimental guides for rapid set up and easy switching between crystallization methods
- reproducibility – every day, year-on-year, unrivalled across a wide range of viscosities, down to 10 nL on multi-aspirate
- exact drop precision – perfectly positioned drops for downstream imaging by placing protein and screen drops with the same head
- simple set up – eliminates the need for instrument configuration changes when changing techniques or liquid viscosities
- robust day-to-day performance – even in heavy use. Proven reliability with no blocking or clogging, rapid recovery
- well supported – all backed up by an experienced network of support and applications specialists ready to help
Applications:
- sitting drop
- hanging drop
- microbatch (under-oil)
- Microseeding
- additive/fragment screening
- soaking experiments
- other low volume assays that could benefit from high throughput automation, e.g. PCR, compound screening
