How is the Optimiser™ different from a conventional 96-well plate?
All assay reactions in the Optimiser occur in the microfluidic channel at the base of each well. The Optimiser well simply serves as a loading port for samples and reagents which are subsequently drawn into the microchannels of the Optimiser. The microchannels of the Optimiser have a significantly higher surface to volume ratio compared to a traditional plate. This fact, coupled with significant reductions in diffusion distances result in significant improvements in assay kinetics, performance and work flow compared to traditional microtiter plates. We strongly urge users to familiarize themselves with the user manual and to review the FAQ section and application notes to understand the benefits as well as the limitations of the Optimiser microplate. • I can’t get the liquids to flow properly. • Please CLICK HERE to see a short instructional video for pipetting to the Optimiser™ • Most importantly – please check if your solutions are clear of particulates (e.g. supernatants from cell l
