Agilent BioTek EL406 Microplate Washer Dispenser 406PUB3 with Ultrasonic and Dual-Action Manifold
Product Description
The Agilent BioTek EL406 Microplate Washer Dispenser 406PUB3 is a compact, high-precision automated instrument designed for integrated microplate washing and reagent dispensing in biotechnology and clinical research laboratories. This model features advanced dispensing technologies critical for molecular diagnostics, ELISA, bead-based assays, and diverse cell-based assay workflows widely used in synthetic biology and bioprocessing applications.
-
Equipment Capabilities:
- Supports multiple plate formats: 96- and 384-well microplates; optionally configurable for 6- to 1536-well plates with syringe manifold upgrades.
- Dual-action 96-tube manifold enables independent dispensing and aspiration control for accurate washing; optional 192-tube manifold available for faster 384-well washing.
- Ultrasonic advantage reduces clogging ensuring consistent wash performance and reproducibility essential for sensitive biopharmaceutical assay protocols.
- Integrated peristaltic pump with volume range from 1 to 3000 µL per well, achieving <10% CV at 1 µL and typically <3% CV, supporting precise microvolume dispensing necessary in molecular cloning and PCR setups.
- Wash volume ranges: 50-3000 µL per well on 96-tube manifold, extendable to 5000 µL with 192-tube option.
- Selectable wash parameters with crosswise aspiration minimize residue, critical for maintaining assay integrity in fluorescence and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays.
- Additional features: timed shaking, soaking, and sonication functions enhance wash efficiency and sample homogeneity critical in neuroimaging and cell imaging applications.
- Supports single reagent dispense and up to four wash buffers (with optional valve module upgrade), ideal for complex assay automation requiring multiple liquid handling steps.
-
Technical Details:
- Dimensions: 43 cm (W) x 50 cm (D) x 26 cm (H), suitable for space-limited laboratory environments.
- Dispensing technology combines peristaltic and wash head systems for reliable reagent delivery and fluid removal.
- Compatible with LHC software for enhanced method development and lab system integration.
-
Applications:
- Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA)
- Mesoscale Discovery (MSD) assays
- Cell- and bead-based assays
- Magnetic and vacuum filtration protocols
- Serial dilutions and plate coating routines
- Microvolume dispensing for PCR and molecular biology assays
-
Biotechnology Significance:
This instrument is essential in molecular diagnostics, gene editing assay preparation, and biomanufacturing quality control. Its precision and reliability make it critical in biopharmaceutical production pipelines and widely adopted in synthetic biology research for automated liquid handling and washing processes. -
Included Components:
- Standard 96/384-well wash manifolds (96-tube and 192-tube)
- Source and waste bottles
- Vacuum pump
- Dispensing tubing kit
- Power and communication cables
-
Service and Warranty:
- Professionally serviced with preventive maintenance including colorimetric verification of wash heads and stress testing for robust performance.
- Comes with 120-day warranty (continental US) and 60-day international warranty, with extension options available.
- On-site setup, training, and Artel volume verification services offered to ensure optimal integration and performance.
The Agilent BioTek EL406 combines versatility, precision, and reliability, making it an ideal microplate washer and dispenser for researchers in clinical diagnostics, biotechnology, and biomedical engineering fields seeking consistent and reproducible assay results in their microplate workflows.
