Digilab OmniGrid Micro is a flexible microarrayer for entry level production.
Digilab OmniGrid Micro is designed for producing DNA or protein microarrays on slides. It can accommodate solid- or split-pin printing pins to create high or low-density arrays for functional genomics research. The small footprint and 11-slide nest configuration make the OmniGrid Micro ideal for any laboratory starting out in microarraying. Digilab OmniGrid Micro can dip into a source plate (e.g. 96 or 384 well plate) and spot the sample solution onto a solid surface (e.g. glass slide, silicon substrate).
In touching the surface with the pin, a given volume of sample is deposited onto the surface. Using the optional split microspotting pins, up to 200 consistent spots can be produced from a single dip. A vacuum wash station ensures active washing in between sample transfers while humidity control minimizes evaporation of precious sample.
