The four independently operated probes with variable spacing (from 9 to 18mm), allow access to virtually any tube, vial, or microplate configuration.
The variable spacing provides added flexibility to access a wide range of vessels.
The independent probes can enable each probe to move on the Z-axis to access single samples from the large bed of the Quad-Z 215.
An advanced, capacitive liquid-level detection system on each of the independently operated probes minimises carryover, ensuring accurate and reproducible results.
The new disposable tip option allows users to automate pipetting tasks previously accomplished manually, and provides increased throughput, higher efficiencies, and lower costs.
The instrument is optimised for use with Gilson's Diamond Tips, ensuring no carry-over contamination, lower volume dispensing capability, better reproducibility, and increased speed by eliminating wash steps.
The optional 849 Multiple Injection Module is an innovative instrument with four injection valves, which provides injection capabilities onto HPLC analysis systems using the Quad-Z 215.
The Quad-Z's large bed capacity and increased flexibility enhances the Gilson line of high-throughput instrumentation for the genomic, proteomics, and pharmaceutical industries.
