Microarray Wash Station (6 Slides)


Price: $586.00
Item Number: AWS
Arrayit Microarray Wash Station (6 Slides) has a capacity for 6 glass microarray slides (1 x 25 x 76 mm) and is designed to be used for microarray washes in conjunction with a 500 ml glass beaker, magnetic stir bar and magnetic stir plate. The Arrayit Microarray Wash Station (Cat. AWS) is manufactured from durable polypropylene and the 6 glass slides are inserted in slots in the top and bottom of the AWS for a secure fit during the wash steps. The open design permits the efficient washing of microarray slides to remove unbound fluorescent material following the hybridization step for DNA and protein microarrays, life sciences research and microarray testing. Arrayit Wash Buffers A, B, C and 1, 2, 3 can be used at 500 ml per wash step for long and short oligonucleotide microarray applications. The stir bar fits under the wash station to enable rapid and efficient mixing on a magnetic stir plate. Ships as 1 wash station per order.
