Porvair Sciences will launch a microplate for genomics sample preparation at Analytica 2016 exhibition in Munich, Germany.
The 96-well 2ml deep well Genomics Sample Preparation Plate has been designed with thickened walls and strengthened ribs to stop cracking or leaking when used in Geno/Grinder or Tissulyser machines.
According to Porvair, its latest model has been proven to withstand demanding applications using steel ball bearings in the wells shaken at up to 1500rpm - used to homogenise seeds, leaves or tissue ready for DNA extraction.
The plate is made from ultra-clean polypropylene. In tests at the National Centre for Mass Spectroscopy Excellence at Swansea University (UK) it was found to be free of measurable leachates / extractables as determined on their most sensitive time-of-flight MS instruments.
Also at Analytica 2016, Porvair Sciences will show its latest products that enable Lab Automation facilities to optimise sample preparation and improve productivity.
These include the Ultravap Mistral - a product designed to remove the traditional laboratory ‘bottleneck’ of solvent evaporation from microplates, the Universal Robotic Manifold for productive automation of SPE or DNA clean-up procedures and the MiniSeal Plus electronically controlled thermal sealer developed for laboratories sealing small to medium batches of microplates.
The company will also be showing a selection of its comprehensive range of applications optimised microplates, all at Analytica Hall A1, Stand 514.
