The Bravo Platform must include the gripper assembly, which is required for removing
the mounted AssayMAP Bravo cartridges and disposable pipette tips from the Bravo
96AM Head. For a detailed description of the Bravo Platform and gripper assembly, see
"Hardware overview" on page
The autofilling station consists of the 96AM Wash Station (item 3), and the Pump
Module 2.0, tubing kit with inline filter, and two carboys (item 4).
The 96AM Wash Station is a 96-chimney reservoir for washing the probes, mounted
cartridges, and mounted pipette tips on the Bravo 96AM Head. The chimneys in the
wash station prevent carryover and reduce contamination. The liquid enters the 96AM
Wash Station through two input ports and then flows up through the chimneys to wash
the cartridges, pipette tips, or probes. The waste overflows from the chimneys and is
removed through two outlet ports.
Using a model of the Tip Wash Station other than the 96AM Wash Station can result
in a potential crash with the Bravo 96AM Head. Ensure that you use only the 96AM
Wash Station.
The Pump Module supplies liquid to the 96AM Wash Station for washing operations,
and it removes the waste liquid during washing operations. The inline filter is required
to help prevent any tubing particulates from potentially clogging the chimneys of the
96AM Wash Station.
The Protein Sample Prep Workbench is an interface that provides a collection of
AssayMAP workflows, protocols, and forms for running protein sample prep
applications on the AssayMAP Bravo Platform. The Protein Sample Prep Workbench
includes the following:
•
Workflow Library
•
Application Library
•
Utility Library
•
Literature Library
The VWorks software is required for the Protein Sample Prep Workbench. You set up
the AssayMAP Bravo Platform using the VWorks software.
