Thermo Fisher Scientific Launches New Higher Throughput Magnetic Particle Processor

Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, introduced its Thermo Scientific KingFisher Flex magnetic particle processor. Based on the highly successful KingFisher 96, the Kingfisher Flex offers increased flexibility and throughput with the incorporation of magnetic heads for both 96- and 24-well plates. The 24-magnet head enables the high-speed processing of samples from 200 – 5000 µL in 24-well deep well plates, providing five times the yield with excellent reproducibility and quality. Furthermore, the larger combined volume range (20 – 5000 µL) of the KingFisher Flex makes it suitable for clinical and biomedical researchers requiring larger volumes of starting material such as whole blood, as well as for industrial and process laboratories for quality control.

In addition, the KingFisher Flex offers scientists highly versatile, automated magnetic particle processing for DNA/RNA, protein or cell purification from virtually any source. The new easy-to-use control panel, color display and on-board memory of the KingFisher Flex ensure instant access to all settings and more than 100 protocols. For more streamlined workflows, the robot-compatible KingFisher Flex integrates smoothly with benchtop automation systems.
