Laminar Wash Technology for Sample Preparation – How it Works

Laminar Wash technology represents a completely new way to approach cell washing and sample preparation. The system comprises two essential components: a unique plate design and fluidics that generate laminar flow across the sample. This animation covers “how it works” as part of our longer video on Laminar Wash technology. Highlights include:

  • The unique characteristics of the Laminar Wash plate (0:12)
  • Combining incubation with cell settling directly on the plate (0:45)
  • Operation of the instrument touchscreen and fluidics (1:05)
  • How the system uses laminar flow to wash cells clean of debris, unbound reagents, and dead cells (1:33)
