| The MultiScreen Column Loader is an accessory product for the MultiScreen Assay System. The Column Loader enables the uniform loading of an equal volume of dry beads, powders, or resins into the 96 wells of a MultiScreen plate. The weight per well varies, depending on the media you use. The Column Loader comes in various sizes, tailored to specific applications. It also comes with a scraper to push material into the Loader wells. These devices are suitable for use with most separations media available as powders, dry resins, or beads. The Loader is made from aluminum that has been coated to release materials, resist abrasion, and be inert. Resins that typically require packing for optimum performance require packing in the MultiScreen plates. This is best accomplished by centrifuging the prewet packing in the plates with an appropriate supporting fluid collection plate in a microplate swinging bucket rotor. (Use MultiScreen alignment frame, MACF 096 04, to assure alignment of the MultiScreen plate with the filtrate receiver plate in the centrifuge.) |
