50 TS
50 TS
Washer
The 50™ TS Washer offers functionality that is unsurpassed in its class. The color touchscreen provides a visual interface that makes creating protocols fast and intuitive. Its performance for conventional plate washing is excellent, and it is also ideal for cell-based assay washing and for processing biomagnetic or polystyrene bead and vacuum filtration protocols. Used in conjunction with the 800™ TS Absorbance Reader or other detection system, the 50 TS brings convenience and consistently high quality results to your laboratory’s plate washing workflows.
- High quality, high performance automated microplate washing at an affordable price
- Application versatility: ELISA to cell-based assays and bead-based assays
- Color touchscreen for quick, easy programming and operation
- Automated maintenance routines for continued reliable operation
APPLICATIONS
The 50 TS automates the aspirate, dispense shake and soak steps required for many assays including cell-based assays, biomagnetic and polystyrene bead-based assays.
- ELISA assays
- Cell-based assays
- Biomagnetic separation
- Vacuum filtration
- Luminex® xMap® assays
- Multiplex assays
FEATURES
High quality & performance, affordable price
These qualities make BioTek the #1 plate washer brand in the world. As an ISO certified and FDA registered Medical Device manufacturer, BioTek understands the importance of accurate, repeatable results, low maintenance, and reliability in the clinical and research laboratory.
ELISA to cell- and bead-based assays
Applications for the 50 TS extend far beyond simple dispense and aspirate routines typical of many ELISA processes. Optimize fluid delivery for gentle cell-based assay washing, or run bead-based processes with the available biomagnetic and vacuum filtration modules.
Automated maintenance routines for continued reliable operation
Routine maintenance ensures continued reliable washing and excellent assay performance. The 50 TS offers pre-defined, automated maintenance routines including daily and overnight protocols. These keep the fluid path clean and prevent buildup of salt, protein or other material that can block manifold tubes and cause inadequate washing.
Automated switching of up to 3 buffers
To facilitate complex wash protocols or automated maintenance routines, the automated buffer switching capability adds even greater automation to the system.
