User-friendly: easy to operate with touchscreen interface
Adaptable: optional integration into liquid handling systems
The MultiMACS™ Cell24 Separator is the first instrument to allow parallel isolations from 24 samples in a single run. It has specifically been developed for simultaneous multisample magnetic cell separations using MACS® Technology. A strong 24-well magnet is used to retain magnetically labeled cells within Multi-24 Columns. Non-labeled target cells are collected as flow-through from the column, leading to fast, high-quality cell separations that are ready for any downstream application.
The Multi-24 Column Block is inserted into the MultiMACS Column Holder, the 24-well Deep Well Plate or alternatively 24 5mL tubes in the MultiMACS 5 mL Tube Rack is placed into the instrument. The samples are applied to the columns; non-labeled cells run through. The column is washed to collect all non-labeled cells. It's that easy!
The MultiMACS Cell24 Magnet generates a high-gradient magnetic field to retain magnetically labeled cells within the columns. The vertical movements of the magnet and the column holder are driven by an integrated motor, which is controlled either manually by utilizing the touchscreen or is fully automated by integration into a liquid handling workstation.
In combination with MACS MicroBeads and MACS Cell Isolation Kits the MultiMACS Cell24 Separator can be used to isolate a wide variety of cell types or to deplete specific target cells. Magnetically labeled cells retained in the column can be collected in a subsequent step using vacuum elution. Irrespective of the isolation method, the cells are ready for use in any downstream application.
The MultiMACS Cell24 Separator can be employed as a semi-automated benchtop instrument or integrated into fully automated liquid handling platforms. Click here to learn more about fully automated solutions.
