Dispense screens and proteins.

Set up sitting drop, hanging drop and microbatch reactions.

Do it all on one system with the Phoenix.

Screens are dispensed with positive displacement syringes.

No system liquid; non-contact protein dispenser.

The Phoenix is the ideal Protein crystallography robot, featuring accuracy, speed and precision to make it the perfect instrument for sitting drop, hanging drop and microbatch reactions. In less than 50 seconds it dispenses protein and screen to the small wells or membranes. The speed of dispensing the screen and protein eliminates the problem of evaporation even when dispensing as little as 100 nanoliters. Both the 96 syringe head and the nano dispenser have a large volume range. The 96 syringes are equipped with flexible needles that will not be damaged in the event of a misplaced plate. The 96 head can dispense from 100 nanoliters to 100 microliters and the nano dispenser has a range of 50 nanoliters to over 10 microliters. The precision and accuracy are found in the graphs that follow.
