Description:
The Gryphon Family is an industry-leading family of robotic pipettors designed specifically for protein crystallography. With unsurpassed reliability, performance, and speed, the Gryphon is the ideal protein crystallisation pipettor for drop-setting all of your crystallisation assays.
Why Choose a Gryphon?
- Evaporation is not an issue with the dual-dispense heads of the Gryphon. A 96-well LCP plate can be sealed in one minute, and a vapour diffusion plate in under one minute.
- Versatile and upgradable. Add a nano or LCP/Seeding Dispenser at any point in the future.
- Set up LCP, Seeding, sponge phase, bicelle, sitting drop, hanging drop, hanging drop, and microbatch assays all in one system.
- Dispense 96 buffers simultaneously and achieve reproducible results due to minimal volatile buffer evaporation.
- A 96-well LCP plate can be sealed in under 2 minutes, and a vapour diffusion plate in under 1 minute.
- One instrument transfers both buffers and protein into a crystallisation plate with best-in-class precision, accuracy, and reliability.
- Syringes eliminate the need for costly and environmentally unsustainable disposal tip usage,
The ARI Crystal Gryphon protein crystallisation pipettor can be used to set up sitting drop, hanging drop and microbath plates with volumes down to 100nL. The system consists of a 96 channel syringe head for dispensing buffer solutions and a non-contact protein dispenser. It comes complete with a computer and easy-to-use-drag-and-drop software.
