All the crystallization equipment from Formulatrix will be integrated in one software (Rock maker)
- Crystallization Imager (ROCK IMAGER 54)
- Drop Setter (NT8)
- Crystallography Screen Builder (FORMULATOR)
Crystallization Imager from Formulatrix (ROCK IMAGER 54)
- One RI54 at 6°C and second at 20°C
- 54 crystallization plates (SBS, Linbro, Nextal, Terasaki and LCP)
- Only Visible Light and cross polarization (no internal UV)
- Manual UV Inspection Station (MUVIS) is available as external
- Routine imaging of entire 96-well plates with 400 nL drops with autoexposure and EFI in just 5 minutes with visible light
Drop Setter for Protein Crystallization from Formulatrix (NT8)
- Set up hanging drop, sitting drop, microbatch, additive and seeding experiments
- 8-tip head aspirates + dispenses drops from 10 nL to 1.5 μL
- Dead volume is less than 3 μL for 96 drops
- Reusable tips - option to dispose tips after each dispense or reuse them
- Active Humidification
- Plate copy head with liquid sensing - automatically loads tips and can aspirate and dispense up to 200 µL from a deep well block to up to 3 daughter plates
Protein Crystallography Screen Builder from Formulatrix (FORMULATOR)
- Uses microfluidic technology to dispense up to 16 different ingredients
- Low volumes, down to 200 nL with no upper limit
- Dispense a 100 μL, 3-ingredient, 96-well crystallization grid in 2.7 min
- Supports all microplate types, even VDX/Linbro plates
- Integrated barcode scanner automatically loads experiment and ingredient data
- Bottle sensors know where ingredients are located
- No Consumables Needed
- Closed Ingredient Containers - Prevents evaporation, contamination, and noxious fumes from escaping (Nalgene bottles or 50 mL Falcon tubes)
