Hamilton's MassXtract STARlet

The MassXtract STARlet by Hamilton is an advanced assay-ready workstation designed to automate and streamline mass spectrometry sample preparation. This compact system integrates precision pipetting, sophisticated software, and a range of on-deck technologies, including centrifugation, temperature control, and shaking, to provide a fully automated solution that conserves valuable bench space.

Key Features:

1. Automation and Integration:
   • Utilizes Hamilton’s VENUS software, offering a user-friendly interface, simplified programming, and remote monitoring capabilities.
   • Integrated with on-deck technologies such as an enclosed centrifuge (up to 2000 x g), Hamilton Heater Shaker (up to 2500 RPM and 105°C), and Hamilton Heater Cooler for maintaining sample temperatures post-processing.
2. Flexibility:
   • Available in two deck layouts: one optimized for protein precipitation and another for both solid-phase extraction and protein precipitation.
   • The multiflex base plates allow customization of plates, tips, and reservoir positions.
3. Efficient Workflow:
   • Automates both solid-phase extraction and protein precipitation workflows, ensuring high throughput and consistent results.
   • Compact footprint maximizes bench space, making it ideal for laboratories with limited space.
