BioStack Microplate Stacker

The BioStack™ Microplate Stacker is the result of BioTek's years of experience in microplate automation. Through its compatibility with a range of detection and liquid handling systems, the BioStack offers life science laboratories increased throughput for a variety of applications in genomics, proteomics, drug discovery and clinical diagnostics. Speed, ease of use and walk away automation are guaranteed for any routine microplate process.

When used with the ELx405™ Microplate Washer, EL406™ Washer Dispenser, NanoQuot™ Nanoliter Dispenser, MicroFlo™ Select Dispenser or MicroFill™ Microplate Reagent Dispenser, the BioStack's small footprint fits easily in standard laboratory hoods and doesn't require a computer. As a batch processor for the PowerWave™ or Synergy™ Microplate Readers, the BioStack interfaces seamlessly with BioTek's Gen5™ Data Analysis Software. Up to two BioStacks can be integrated to the Precision™ Microplate Pipetting System< for unattended plate replication, bulk reagent dispensing or a number of other liquid handling operations. The BioStack Microplate Stacker is a simple and cost-effective solution for bench top automation of BioTek's microplate components.
