| Mixing/Defoaming centrifuge for 1536well plate Well Tornado FK-62 |
| It is very important to mix solutions inside the well of
microtiter plate during high-throughput screening to prevent significant
variation in the experimental results. The mixing of solutions in 384-well plate is satisfied by plate shaker, however small quantities and viscosity of solutions make it difficult to mix solutions completely in 1536-well plate. This device does not agitate the microtiter plate itself, but mixes solution by rotation and revolution. Mixing is completed in 1536-well plate when the rotational centrifuge force is put on vertical and horizontal directions simultaneously. Moreover, it absolutely removes minuscule bubbles which are impossible to do with a general centrifuge. |

| MMixing tests with two color water paints in 1536-well plate | ||
No Mixing![]() Yellow and blue water paints were dispensed to clear 1536-well plate. (4uL/well respectively) |
Plate Shaker![]() The plate was mixed with a plate shaker for 3 minutes. (Paints were hardly mixed.) |
Well Tornado![]() The plate was mixed with “Well Tornado” for 3 minutes. |
| “Well Tornado” can mix viscous solutions completely in 1536-well plate. | ||
