The Dynamic Devices Oasis liquid handler is used with the 96 1000 µL Head to perform protein purifications using the PhyTip columns. The system can use either 10 µL, 200 µL or 1000 µL tips on the same head within the same run for pipetting large or small volumes.
The drive system of the head makes it a perfect fit for the PhyTip application since the drive can aspirate and dispense at extremely slow speeds, from 2-5 µL/sec, giving the sample the capture time needed to expose it to the solid phase matrix in order for optimal binding and elution.
With a small footprint of 24 inches, the Oasis LM600 has 18 positions for processing PhyTip columns. Deck layouts include: PhyTip 1000 µL Tips, Standard 1000 uL Tips, Deepwell Sample Plates, Deepwell Elution Plates, Column Prep Reagent Reservoir, Deepwell Wash Buffer 1, Deepwell Wash Buffer 2, Elution Buffer Reservoir Deepwell plates are used to prevent cross contamination between samples during washing protocols and a Setup Run method can transfer Wash Buffers 1 & 2 from a reservoir to the deepwells and then removed to make more room for to process the samples with the PhyTip columns.
For more walk away time, the Oasis LM1200 offers 42 positions to process PhyTip columns. Combine the extra deck positions with 1-2 liter ‘fedder’ reservoirs to hold the wash buffers and triple the capacity. Additional configurations include dual 96 1000 µL Heads to process PhyTip simultaneously and gripper tools to move plates on and off the deck from storage containers and microplate readers, and a virtual ‘manufacturing line’ can be realized.
As the world leader in robotic workstation innovation, Hamilton sets the standards for reliability, performance, and flexibility. The STAR line workstations are based on superior air displacement pipetting technology. This increases accuracy and repeatability while providing chain of custody with pipette condition monitoring and recording. Each workstation can be configured with multiple arms and each arm can be configured with multiple pipetting and labware gripping devices. Pipetting channels and labware grippers move independently of each other, supporting the use of a wide range of labware. The compact STARlet can be converted on-site to a STARplus by means of an extension module, more than doubling deck capacity. Thanks to the scalability of the STAR line instruments, the widest possible range of throughputs and budgets can be accommodated, it is even possible to add a second pipetting arm working in parallel.

The PhyNexus MEA 2 robot is a bench top 96 well format platform that brings cost effective sample prep right into the researcher’s lab. The MEA 2 fills the productivity gap between semi-automated instruments and 96 channel capability robots. When used with the unique PhyTip Cover, elution plates retain the integrity of the final elution at volumes as low as 10 µL to guarantee high concentrations of ultra-high purity samples. With the dedicated cooling system option, the MEA can be utilized on any standard lab bench without the need to occupy limited cold room space. The MEA 2 system offers the following:
The MEA 2 processes 12 samples in parallel, moving down the 8 rows of a plate, giving a powerful advantage over 96-at-a-time robots. Purification conditions can be surveyed to produce optimized capture, wash, and elution of any protein. Side-by-side comparisons along the row of 12 can be made with different conditions moving down each of the 8 rows. After conditions have been surveyed and chosen, the MEA 2 can be programmed to process one or two boxes of 96 samples with the optimized conditions.
