Description
The C.WASH is an innovative plate washer designed for automated and contactless washing of microtiter plates. It is the perfect solution for labs focusing on cell-based assays and immunoassays. The C.WASH assists labs in enhancing data quality and improving reproducibility while saving time and lowering costs.
Features:
-
Non-contact washing: Avoid carryover and cross contamination thanks to non-contact dispensing and liquid removal.
-
Supports multiple plate sizes: Versatile instrument capable of gently removing liquid from any SBS format, 96- and 384- well plates.
-
Low residual volume: Unmatched washing efficiency with residual volumes <0.1 µl reduces the number of washing cycles required.
-
Fast and automated: Fully automated and stand-alone operation makes it possible to complete 1 wash cycle in 96- or 384-well plates in under 1 minute.
