ErbaBLOT - Bioservice Biotechnology Company Ltd.

Open compact table-top system for automatic processing of imunoblots and western blots ErbaBLOT

Characteristics

- fully automates various types of immunoblot and westernblot assays. Due to the assay structure there is no need for an operator intervention after sample dispensing;
- can process up to 44 strips;
- memory can store up to 20 assays, each with 14 steps;
- plastic, disposable tray for strips;
- 5, 6 or 7 reagents peristaltic pumps;
- variable reagent volume 0.1 – 5 mL with a step of 0.1 mL;
- 2000 mL waste bottle with liquid level sensor;
- eight optional languages are available (English, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Turkish, Czech and Russian);
- incubation period 00:00 – 30:59 (hh:mm) with a step of 1 min;
- synchronous incubation step time = dosing time + 10 sec – 60 min with a step of 1 sec;
- full time of the method’s incubation – maximum 99:59 (hh:mm)
- mixing of strip content during incubation is enabled by rocking of the strip plate;

- number of cycles in one step: 1-20;
- controlling of the instrument is by a 6-buttons keypad and a 80-character LCD display;
- the transfer of assays between PC and device is carried out via USB interface;
- the pumps are capable of running reversely, which enables the functions "Antidrop" (no drops at the end of tubing during dispensing) and "Reagents saving" (aspiration of dead volume
back to reagent bottles after last dispensing);
- the algorithm for determining the antibody avidity;
- possible to combine various reagent kits and conjugates;
- powered with 24 V DC
- power consumption is up to 30 W;
- small instrument dimensions (52,5 x 31 x 25 cm) and weight (17 kg);
- IP 20 protection level.
