PRODUCT INFORMATION
The VERSA 110 microarray spotter automates peptide synthesis using Fmoc-based chemistry (or Fmoc solid-phase synthesis). With an easy-to-use software and accommodation for low-cost porous membrane materials, it is an effective and robust pipetting system. Specifically, for peptide synthesis on cellulose sheets using the SPOT technique, the VERSA 110 is stable and allows for printing high-throughput microarrays and pipetting amino acids and reagents as low as 40 nL.
