The MassXtract STARlet by Hamilton is an advanced assay-ready workstation designed to automate and streamline mass spectrometry sample preparation. This compact system integrates precision pipetting, sophisticated software, and a range of on-deck technologies, including centrifugation, temperature control, and shaking, to provide a fully automated solution that conserves valuable bench space.
Key Features:
- Automation and Integration:
- Utilizes Hamilton’s VENUS software, offering a user-friendly interface, simplified programming, and remote monitoring capabilities.
- Integrated with on-deck technologies such as an enclosed centrifuge (up to 2000 x g), Hamilton Heater Shaker (up to 2500 RPM and 105°C), and Hamilton Heater Cooler for maintaining sample temperatures post-processing.
- Flexibility:
- Available in two deck layouts: one optimized for protein precipitation and another for both solid-phase extraction and protein precipitation.
- The multiflex base plates allow customization of plates, tips, and reservoir positions.
- Efficient Workflow:
- Automates both solid-phase extraction and protein precipitation workflows, ensuring high throughput and consistent results.
- Compact footprint maximizes bench space, making it ideal for laboratories with limited space.
