MultiFlo FX is an automated multi-mode reagent dispenser for 6- to 1536-well microplates. MultiFlo FX incorporates several unique technologies in its modular design, such as Parallel Dispense, Random Access Dispense and Automated Gentle Media Exchange modules to facilitate a variety of liquid handling applications from 2D and 3D cell culture to concentration normalization assays, IC50, ELISA, bead-based assays and more. An important feature is that it can retrieve precious samples/antibodies rather than have them go out to waste. Cassettes are purchased that match use depending on the volume and whether peristaltic or syringe pumps are needed. A computer with Liquid Handling Control software helps with process development and the Biostack4 hotel holds 10 plates with de-lidding/lidding for walk-away automated work after optimization and testing have been completed. The HTSF Multiflo and Biostack4 System are in the 461 BSL2 Biosafety cabinet.

NOTE: Access to UC Berkeley facilities and services requires prior university approval which takes as little as 24 hours. Select "Request Access" button to begin the process and contact support@secondlab.com with any questions.
Once approved, each user will be added to the iLab scheduling app so they can make reservations in iLab as well as Second Lab. If you are working with live human cells or tissue, transgenic cell lines, and/or recombinant DNA you will need to have an approved BUA for UCB campus core facility work.
Please allow time for these processes to finalize by responding quickly to emails concerning these two tasks, contact information about your company and user emails will be needed for the iLab registration and a template will assist you with the BUA applications, as well as assistance from core facility managers and UCB administration. BUAs are reviewed monthly.
Each user must complete instrument-specific training before using the instrumentation. See listing descriptions for more details.
