ASPIRATION MANIFOLD, 96 Channel, 96 Well, Deep Well, or SLAS Tubes or Vials Rack, 19 Gauge, SS Tubes, 42mm Long, 9mm Spacing, Aluminum

Specific Overview

The VP 177A-Series is a side-loading manifold with springs that hold the 96 tube manifold up while the microplate is slid in from the side. Once in place, the manifold is pressed down by hand and tubes aspirate the liquid from the microplate. The bottom position of the tubes is determined by the 3-stop adjustment bolts. The adjustment on these bolts can be precisely determined for critical applications such as setting the distance above a pellet. If you are aspirating above a pellet this is the system for you. The flexibility of setting the lower Z position is very useful. This system is much faster and easier (one-hand operation) to operate. If you have many plates to aspirate this is the system of choice.

Overview

V&P produces a wide variety of wands and manifolds to aspirate or dispense sterile media, assay buffers, and other liquids into standard or deep well microplates. We also make manifolds to evaporate liquids. The wands and manifolds are constructed of rugged clear polycarbonate or polypropylene (black or white) and stainless steel tubes. The single-bore wands are autoclavable and come with either tapered or Female Luer ends.
The polycarbonate manifolds are not autoclavable and have Female Luer connectors. We also offer polypropylene manifolds (black) which are autoclavable and resistant to organic solvents like DMSO. The manifolds have been developed for 24, 48, 96, and 384 well microplates as well for Gen-Probe assay plates and vials. It is very easy to attach these manifolds to an aspiration line by simply cutting off the finger tangs of a 1 to 3 ml plastic syringe then slipping your vacuum line over the syringe barrel and connecting the Female Luer on the manifold to the syringe nozzle. We also make custom manifolds for aspirating deep well plates and micro-centrifuge tubes.
