Adding a Blue® Washer to your Automated Liquid Handler (ALH) more than triples ALH throughput while eliminating tip waste in bead separation and wash steps.

Blue® Washer's 
Blue® Dispenser modules can be configured to dispense in 96, 384, and 1536w plates from 4 or 7 shared liquid inputs and up to 3 dedicated liquid inputs. Dedicated inputs eliminate need for flushing when switching liquids.

​​Blue® Bench: Compact benchtop automation 

Blue® Washer uses centrifugation to remove liquids from 96, 384 and 1536w plates, eliminating background and variability in assay data. Highly reproducible, low residual volumes < 0.3 µl/ well raise z' by 0.1-0.3 for typical cellular assays. Higher z' means more reliable compound profiles - fewer truly active compounds missed AND fewer false positives to re-screen.
