About

Cell feeding, plating, and washing require gentle, precise liquid handling directly inside your biosafety cabinet. The latest Reagent Exchanger (RX) delivers this in a compact, 25 kg instrument measuring 538 mm wide, 425 mm high, and 391 mm deep, making it up to 29% smaller and 36% lighter than its predecessor.

The RX now supports up to six independently controlled dispensers, each equipped with its own dedicated fluid line. One dispenser draws from the Automation Reagent Reservoir, which can be fitted with an optional stir bar for mixing and cell resuspension, and the other five connect to external sources to accommodate multi-reagent protocols. The base RX includes two dispensers, and up to four more can be added at any time after purchase, for a total of six.

In this webinar, discover the latest RX hardware and software enhancements—including a cartridge-based tubing design, gripper-based delidder, and multi-dispense capabilities. Learn how the system preserves sensitive cells, delivers consistent cell plating, and maintains contamination-free workflows, with Q&A to answer your evaluation questions.

Why Attend?

• See What's New in the RX: Learn how the compact redesign, cartridge-based peristaltic tubing, and gripper-based delidder simplify setup and day-to-day operation
• Run Multi-Reagent Protocols with Up to Six Dispensers: Understand how independently controlled dispensers, drawing from the Automation Reagent Reservoir (with optional stirring) and external sources, support complex feeding, washing, and dissociation workflows
• Dispense Efficiently with Multi-Dispense Software: See how the RX uses multiple dispensers and column-specific volumes within a single plate
• Protect Sensitive Cells: Review the data showing 4.9 ± 1.5% confluency loss in HEK-293T cells with RX media exchange, versus 10.1 ± 2.7% with manual feeding
• Get Your Questions Answered: Get clear answers to the questions labs most often ask about labware, cleaning, and automation integration

Who Should Attend

Cell biologists, stem cell researchers, lab managers, and automation engineers working in drug discovery, cell-based assays, or basic research. Also relevant for current RX users and labs evaluating automated plate washers for media exchange, cell plating, or wash steps.
