Bio-Rad Bio-Plex Pro II Automated Microplate Wash Station - Magnetic Bead Washer for 96-Well Plates, ELISA Assays, Luminex Compatible, Vacuum Filtration Option, Used from University Medical Lab in Good Working Condition
This Bio-Rad Bio-Plex Pro II Wash Station (Model: Bio-Plex Pro II, REF: 30034377, SN: 1010004627) is a used automated microplate washer designed for efficient washing of 96-well plates in biological and medical laboratory settings. It was previously used in a university medical lab for bead-based multiplex assays and ELISA protocols until replaced by a newer model; it was in good working condition at the time of decommissioning. Powers on. This unit is compatible with Bio-Plex Pro assays, MagPlex beads, and Luminex systems, making it ideal for immunology, microbiology, and high-throughput screening applications.
Key features include an 8-channel manifold for precise dispensing and aspiration, magnetic plate carrier for hands-free magnetic bead washing, and low-level vacuum filtration to minimize bead loss during gentle aspiration. The system supports up to 4 dispense channels (L1-L4), with L1 and L2 fully tubed using clear, flexible silicone tubing (no cracks or brittleness observed) and L3/L4 securely capped with factory plugs for optional expansion. The waste line (W) is connected with minimal yellowing near the fitting, indicating careful prior use. Internal components, such as the vacuum pump and solenoid valves, are all intact with no signs of leaks, corrosion, or damage—visible through the bottom access panel. The manifold needles are clean, straight, and unclogged.
