Automated deep well plate processing

Integra Biosciences has expanded the functionality of its WELLJET dispenser stacker, now supporting automated processing of deep well plates up to 45 mm in height. This enhancement addresses the challenges of high-throughput workflows by enabling laboratories to efficiently manage larger sample volumes in 96- and 384-well plate formats.

Deep well plates are essential in high-throughput labs for large-scale sample preparation, storage, and processing. However, their increased height often poses challenges for standard automated liquid handlers, leading to workflow inefficiencies. The upgraded WELLJET dispenser stacker overcomes these limitations, providing rapid and accurate processing of deep well plates to streamline lab operations.

This new capability is particularly beneficial for labs using Thermo Scientific™ KingFisher™ instruments in next-generation sequencing (NGS) library preparation or quantitative PCR (qPCR). By automating the filling of deep well plates, the WELLJET dispenser stacker minimises manual handling, reduces errors, and improves reproducibility in nucleic acid isolation workflows.

With its compact footprint, low operating costs, and precise liquid handling capabilities, the WELLJET dispenser stacker offers a cost-effective solution for dispensing complex liquids such as buffers, reagents, and culture media. Automating deep well plate processing with the WELLJET dispenser stacker enhances accuracy, accelerates workflows, and provides a user-friendly experience with an intuitive touchscreen interface for easy setup and operation.

The WELLJET dispenser stacker is a valuable addition to high-volume liquid handling workflows, offering a reliable, walk-away solution that improves productivity and efficiency in the lab.
