BioNex Nanodrop II

Nanodrop II/Nanodrop Express

For a complete high-throughput solution for low-volume, high-precision pipetting, try the 8-channel Nanodrop II or the 16-channel Nanodrop Express.

Each system has interchangeable, fixed-tip heads (1×8 or 2×4 configurations for the Nanodrop II and 1×16 or 2×8 configurations for the Nanodrop Express) and comes with two plate positions that enable applications such as assay miniaturization, DNA normalization, method development, PCR and NGS reaction setup, or protein crystallography.

The Nanodrop technology aspirates and dispenses a broad range of liquids, including DMSO, and features the Nanobuilder software system that enables a wide range of applications and data manipulation. This patented technology isolates the solenoid dispense actuators from the sample path to assure long life and easy, low- cost maintenance – even with regular use of difficult suspensions such as proteins, cells and YOx beads.

Key Features and Benefits
