Cell Wash - Biotek 405 LS Operator's Manual

Cell Wash

Not all 405 LS models support cell wash assays. The dual 96-tube wash
n
manifold must be installed.
See how to
Define a Cell Wash Protocol on page 1.
Low-flow Fluid Path
The 405 LS supports cell-based assays that require the addition and removal of
buffer solution without disrupting the cells in the wells of the microplate. Cells are
often dislodged when fluid is dispensed at too high a pressure and lost during
subsequent aspiration of the fluid from the well unless counter measures are taken.
The 405 LS is equipped with a low-flow fluid path that provides a "cell wash"
alternative for cell-based assays.
