Unit enables high-throughput protein precipitation of biological samples in a 96-well format with no wetting out and leaking of the sample
Porvair Sciences, a specialist in application-specific microplate technology, says its P3 represents a major advance in protein precipitation technology.
Based on the Microlute, the P3 enables high-throughput protein precipitation of biological samples in a 96-well format.
Incorporating a novel frit matrix and proprietary treatment, means that there is no wetting out and leaking of the sample through the plate.
The P3 solves all the traditional sample breakthrough, clogging and waste problems associated with the Crash method of protein removal.
Processing 96 samples simultaneously, the P3 significantly improves productivity versus traditional protein precipitation techniques.
The novel design of the P3 is readily integrated into automated systems offering the possibility of further throughput gains.
The protocol used by the plate is little changed from the familiar protein precipitation method.
For the first time, says Porvair, an optimised product is available that combines the productivity enhancing features of a 96-well microplate system with a proprietary design avoiding the protein precipitation mess.
