96 Channel Dispensing Manifold on 9 mm Centers and 45 mm Long for Microplates

Dispensing Manifold, for 96 standard and deep well microplates and SBS racks of tubes or vials, adjustable height, quick loading, dispense volume controlled by syringe or bottletop dispenser

V&P Scientific is Dispensing Manifold Central

The addition or dispensing of liquid to microplates is an important aspect of processing many different assay protocols. V&P Scientific has worked with many different scientists and many different companies to make over 60 dispensing manifolds for nearly every conceivable application over the last 40 years. The following list highlights the diversity of V&P’s collection.

Different Needle Center to Center Spacing for microplates and tube racks

2.25 mm, 4.5 mm, 9 mm, 13.4 mm, 15 mm, 18 mm, 20 mm, 26 mm, 39 mm,

Different Number of Needles

3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 48, 72, 96, 384,

Different Lengths of Needles

7 mm, 11 mm, 12.6 mm, 13 mm, 14 mm, 15 mm, 19 mm, 20 mm, 26 mm, 30 mm, 32 mm, 35 mm, 42 mm, 45 mm,

49 mm, 63.5 mm, 65 mm, also our aluminum slides allow you to determine exposed needle length.

Different Needle Bore Sizes

19 gauge, 20 gauge, 21 gauge, 23 gauge

Chemically Resistant Models

Organic solvents,

Salt solutions and acids

Many of our dispensing manifolds can also be used as aspirating manifolds when used with a vacuum trap.

VP 177AD-1

V&P’s new 96 CHANNEL MANIFOLD (VP 177AD-1) will fill your 96 well microplates with sterile growth media, buffers and other solutions. The VP 177AD-1 differs from the VP 177AD in that the plates are slid in under the manifold instead of placing the manifold on top on the plate. Our spring loaded manifold delivery system makes plate filling very easy.

The VP 177AD-1 is very adaptable with a simple Z adjustment to accommodate both deep well and standard 96 well microplates. Designed for high throughput filling of multiple microplates.

A Luer inlet nipple is used to connect the Inlet 2 way valve to the manifold. When the syringe plunger is raised liquid is drawn from the source bottle through the Inlet Valve. Depressing the plunger dispenses the liquid through the manifold. The two way valve is included with the VP 177AD-1. We also offer several bottle top dispensers, the most popular is the VP 195K.

Three “Z” adjustment stops allow the dispense tubes to be set at any height above a standard or deep well microplate. The manifold is held up by 3 springs and is pushed down to the Z stop prior to dispensing.

The plate slider/registration feature provides a simple but sure method of placing the dispense tubes in the center of the wells and then reposition the pins to edges of wells.

*This product has not been tested with all types of solutions, for example, those containing or comprised of various detergents and/or organic solvents. If your application includes these types of solutions, preliminary testing may be needed.

Applications of V&P Scientific’s Dispensing Manifolds

The dispensing of liquid into microplates, tubes, or vials is an important aspect of processing many different assay protocols. V&P Scientific has been working closely with scientists to develop new economical dispensing applications for over 40 years. We have solved many problems and feel that one of our 60 different aspiration manifolds may be the solution for your new protocol.

One of our customers used our VP 177AD-1 (96 needle dispensing manifold) to solve their dispensing need.

The University of California, Riverside in Collaboration with USAID, presented a poster at Plant & Animal Genome 2015. The following V&P Scientific products were used for their research on DNA isolation of cowpea samples: VP 177A-1, VP 177AD-1, VP 177A-1B, VP 771MDWM-1

Their experimental kit was able to process 96 samples in 6 hours, whereas a standard kit has a run time of approximately 3 hours for only 24 samples. The experimental magnetic bead kit also yielded an 18% decrease in cost compared to the Standard Kit. Click here to see the poster.
