Thermo Scientific KingFisher Presto with 96 DW head**Unit has been tested for basic functionality. Has slight cosmetic blemishes from normal use as scratches on aside. See photos for further details.The KingFisher Presto purification system is intended for laboratory use by trained personnel in automation environments. The instrument is intended for automated transfer and processing of magnetic particles in a microplate format. Use for self-testing is excluded. It is recommended that Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) is followed to guarantee reliable analyses. Use the Thermo Scientific KingFisher Presto as part of an automated purification system with a liquid handler for plate filling in high-throughput laboratories. Purify 96 or 24 samples at a time with Volume range of 50-5000L. Thermo Scientific KingFisher minimized size for easy fitting to automation systems and Heating capability for application requiring elevated temperatures with Easy connection to several liquid handling instruments and Flexible system for wide variety of applications. The patented technology of the KingFisher Presto system is based on the use of magnetic rods covered with a disposable, specially designed tip comb and plates. The instrument functions without any dispensing or aspiration parts or devices. The operating principle employed is inverse magnetic particle processing (MPP) technology. Rather than moving the liquids, the magnetic particles are moved plate to plate containing specific reagents, in contrast to the external magnet method. Magnetic particles are transferred using magnetic rods covered with a disposable, specially designed plastic tip comb. The operating with the magnetic particles can be divided into five separate processes. Each process is automated by the KingFisher purification system. The process are: Collecting magnetic particles, releasing magnetic particles, Washing magnetic particles, Incubation and Concentration.SpecificationsSamples per Run 96Heating Temperature From + 5C above ambient temperature to 115CPlate Type 96, 96 DWDepth 465 mmHeight 400 mmWeight 24kgwidth 360 mmVolume Processing 50 to 1000 LVoltage range 100-240Vac, 50/60 Hz, 175VAAdditional Prep Fees May Apply
