Figure 2.
Template preparation instrument. Microtiter plates containing M13 phage supernatant and cell pellets are picked up from cassettes by the server at the right. The supernatant is transferred into white glass filter plates mounted on a rotating disc (center). The disc rotates under the various dispense (white) and pressure (atleft of disc) stations to perform the wash protocol. Purified templates are collected by the plate server at the left of the picture and stored in a second set of cassettes.
