Reservoirs

1

Hi all,

We are looking for a reservoir with the possibility to have a different solution in e.g. the first and/or last column. The closest I came was this one: https://www.agilent.com/en/promotions/microplate-selection-tool#204249-100, but I guess the barriers in the reservoir do not have the flexibility to be moved to another position?!
Any hint or help is highly appreciated!

Best, Cornelia

Hi Cornelia @csthauer ,

best (cheapest) is indeed to stick to existing consumable plates. Axygen (now Corning) has a rather large variety of these: Axygen® Reagent Reservoirs | Corning. I’ve used multiple different ones from them. I have not heard about a solution where you could move the well walls to create larger/smaller partitions within one holder. Some people 3D print stuff like this if it can be washed and reused without issues for the application. Then you can customize it a bit more. Hope this helps!

Cheers, Kevin

Thanks, that is pretty much what we are looking for. Any idea on the price? Sterility?

@csthauer Hi Cornelia. I used this reservoir system from Beckman in the past. It gave me the most flexibility at that time. Biomek® Modular Reservoirs, Beckman Coulter® | VWR
Good Luck!
