MAUI Wash System

The MAUI Wash System automates washing and drying of up to 12 post-hybridization microarray slides or any standard 1" x 3" glass slide used for other biological and chemical assays. This system significantly reduces the variability of results compared to manual processing and is ideal for mid-to-high-throughput laboratories that demand high-quality microarray data

MAUI Wash System Key Benefits

  • Provides consistent and reproducible results
  • Allows users to control: wash cycle times, reagent usage, buffer temperature, slide agitation, and centrifugation drying time
  • Protects slides from ambient light and ozone
  • Easily programmable for use with Agilent, Exiqon, Phalanx, Roche NimbleGen, and self-spotted arrays and wash protocols

Four Simple Steps to Perfectly Processed Post-Hybridization Microarray Slides!

  1. Load up to 12 hybridized microarray slides into the slide carrier
  2. Place the slide carrier into the MAUI Wash System.
  3. Select and run one of up to ten programmable wash/dry protocols.
  4. Remove clean and dried slides from the MAUI Wash System for scanning.
