Automated Crystallization Plate Production

The MaX WorkCell addresses all process needs of plate preparation including screen-making, drop-setting and plate-sealing. The inclusive preparation system is compatible with multiple plate types and crystallization techniques. Experiment tracking and data handling maximize walk away time and work flow efficiency. As a pre-configured system with a small footprint, installation is quick and easy. Robust liquid handling is provided for screen-making, accurate nanoliter dispensing for drop-setting. The Abgene Seal-it 100 provides plate sealing. The Matrix Hydra II may be added for quick plate-to-plate transfer, thus allowing an even faster build process when transferring from deep well blocks to crystallization plates. Additionally, when combined with the Rhombix Vision products for imaging and storage of crystallization experiments, the MaX WorkCell can provide a complete solution for automated crystallization.
