Photomicrograph of cells grown in a 1536 well plate and washed with SQUIRT (see photo at right). The top picture was taken before washing and the bottom picture was taken after washing. Cells were processed three times and remain undisturbed by SQUIRT. Notice the absence of pressure points that result from probe based methods. |

The SQUIRT™ multi-format microplate washer is designed for reliability and can be used as a bench top device or in integrated robotic systems. SQUIRT microplate washers can wash any 96, 384, 1536 or 3456 well SBS formatted plate without manifold exchange or adjustments at speeds up to three wash/dry cycles per 15 seconds. The SQUIRT microplate washer's unique slit manifold design minimizes maintenance associated with clogged probes and the ‘donut effect’ where cells are removed during aspiration with traditional probe based instruments. A plate inversion/underside spraying technique achieves a wash efficiency of greater than 106. SQUIRT microplate washers are the perfect addition for any lab performing cell based assays, ELISAs, coating microplates, or conducting high content screening or proteomics and genomics research.

Magnetic microplate carrier accessory for magnetic bead technology
The Squirt can be fitted with an optional magnetic plate carrier insert for applications using magnetic bead technology. The magnetic plate carrier can be quickly attached to the Squirt microplate washer, to secure magnetic beads to the bottom of the microplate during washing.
