MTC Bio KingFisher™-Compatible Plates & Tip Combs – Deep-Well, Elution & 24-Well, OptiWell™ & ILP

Magnetic bead purification on a KingFisher™ system needs a matched set: deep-well plates for sample and wash, a shallow elution plate, and a tip comb that protects the magnetic rods. Get any piece wrong and the run stops or the yield drops.
Pick your plate or comb in the first menu, then choose your version in the second: MTC Bio OptiWell™ or ILP, sterile or non-sterile. Use the pairing guide below to build a complete set in one order.

Built for KingFisher™ Formats
Plate and comb dimensions made for KingFisher™ and Accuris IsoPURE™ magnetic particle processors.
Low-Binding Polypropylene
Virgin, medical-grade PP keeps beads and nucleic acids from sticking.
Clean by Design
Made in a cleanroom; certified RNase/DNase-free and non-pyrogenic.
Sterile Options
Gamma-irradiated versions for sensitive samples.
V-Bottom Wells
Beads collect in the tip of the well for full recovery.
Combo Packs
Comb-in-plate packs save a step when setting up a run.

The tip comb sits between the magnetic rods and your sample. It carries beads from plate to plate and keeps the rods clean, so a fresh comb goes on every run.
Choose 96-tip combs for 96-well runs and 24-tip combs for 24-well runs. The 96-tip comb comes from both lines, so you can pick OptiWell™ or ILP in the second menu.
A typical 96-well run uses one tip comb, one elution plate, and three to five deep-well plates for sample and washes. Multiply by your runs per month to size your order. To pre-fill plates ahead of a run or store eluates afterward, cover them with our silicone sealing mats or sealing films. For general-purpose deep-well plates, see our 96-well 2 mL deep-well plates.
They are made to KingFisher™ formats and are sold as alternatives for KingFisher™ and Accuris IsoPURE™ magnetic particle processors.

Both are MTC Bio lines. OptiWell™ is MTC Bio's own line with black printed alphanumerics; ILP, from Innovative Laboratory Products, is now part of MTC Bio. Some items come from only one line, so the menus show only the versions available for each item.
No. The OptiWell™ D3096-39 has a V-bottom and is 44.2 mm tall. The ILP KF22US-9 has a round bottom with a V point and is 41.6 mm tall. Choose the one your protocol specifies.
D3096-KFC is a sterile 96-tip comb packed inside a 2.2 mL 96-well plate, 50 sets per case. KF-COMB-24-N is a 24-tip comb with a 24-well plate, 50 sets per case, non-sterile.
Use the plate your protocol calls for. D3096-09 holds 0.5 mL and KF05US-9 holds 200 µL; both are 15.1 mm tall.
96-tip combs ship 100 per case, 24-tip combs 50 per case, and 8-tip combs 480 per case, all packed two per bag.
