MTC BIO · R0096 · 96-WELL MAGNETIC SEPARATION
Keep your samples in a 96-well format while you separate magnetic beads for purification, cleanup and nucleic acid isolation. The MTC Bio R0096 gives manual plate-based methods a dedicated benchtop separation station, with a ring-shaped magnetic array and durable metal construction.
Choose the plate separator, not a tube rack. R0096 is the family’s option for PCR, assay, deep-well and elution plates. Laboratory plates, beads and reagents are selected separately.
A plate-based separation station for manual magnetic bead workflows.
A magnetic array arranged beneath the plate’s wells.
Catalog R0096. Plates, beads and reagents are not included.
For methods already organized in 96-well plates, use a separator matched to that format rather than transferring samples into a tube rack solely for the magnetic step.
PCR, assay, deep-well and elution formats address different stages of preparation. Match plate depth, well geometry and chemistry to the protocol before choosing consumables.
The reusable metal separator gives plate placement a dedicated location. Use the same orientation, seating check and aspiration technique across runs.
R0096 is specified for 96-well PCR plates as well as larger multiwell formats. It is a practical format to consider when your bead-based cleanup method is already organized around PCR wells and multichannel pipetting.
Before the first run: confirm that the plate seats securely, its wells align with the magnet array, and the collection pattern leaves a clear aspiration path. A matching well count is not, by itself, a compatibility guarantee.
For methods using deeper wells, R0096 provides the plate-format magnetic separation step while you keep sample identities in the same layout. The manufacturer also illustrates assay-style and deep-well plates on this separator.
Choose by working geometry, not maximum capacity alone. The plate’s well bottom, fill volume and bead collection pattern all affect how you remove supernatant. Establish the method using the actual plate and chemistry you intend to run.
The 96-position ring-shaped array is the defining feature of R0096. It places a magnetic collection position beneath each well of the selected plate, rather than providing individual tube slots.
During the magnetic step, let responsive beads collect before removing liquid. Keep the plate level and use a consistent aspiration position that avoids the bead deposit. Separation time and recovery must come from the bead-kit method, not from the appearance of the magnets.
Manual bead-based isolation or purification methods specified for 96-well plates.
Plate-based bead cleanup workflows where your reagent protocol calls for magnetic separation.
Research methods that use magnetically responsive particles in a supported plate format.
R0096 is a separation accessory. It does not supply the extraction chemistry, automate liquid handling or establish a validated diagnostic method.
This manufacturer illustration separates the PCR plate from R0096 so you can see the wells above the ring-shaped array. The laboratory plate is a separate consumable, not part of the separator.
The manufacturer also illustrates D3096-39 on R0096. Compare this deeper plate profile with the D3096-09 example above when planning your plate-based method; choose the exact plate geometry and working volume for your protocol.
Combine samples and beads according to the kit instructions. Place the chosen plate level on the separator and confirm seating.
Allow the beads to collect, then remove liquid without disturbing them. Carry out the prescribed wash sequence.
Lift the laboratory plate off the separator when the method calls for bead resuspension. Return it for later magnetic steps as instructed.
Bench tip: Before committing valuable samples, check plate fit and aspiration technique using a suitable trial setup. Do not assume the collection position or timing transfers unchanged from another separator.
Choose for PCR, assay, deep-well and elution-plate workflows. This page sells one R0096 separator.
Choose for 8 x 1.5/2.0 mL microtubes or 16 x 0.1/0.2 mL PCR tubes, with removable magnet sleeve and tube-height adjustment rings. Alternative format: view the R0215 tube rack.
Choose the conical-tube model with three 15 mL positions and three 50 mL positions on opposite sides of the support. R0250 is a separate catalog item, not an option included with R0096.
Related workflow: MTC Bio 2 mL 96-well deep-well plates offer different well shapes and formats for sample preparation. Choose the exact plate against your method and verify separator fit.
Related workflow: MTC Bio 0.2 mL 96-well PCR plates provide several plate styles. These are workflow suggestions, not a claim that every variant is compatible with R0096.
MTC Bio R0096 is a 96-well magnetic bead separator for manual PCR, assay, deep-well and elution-plate workflows. Treat it as a format-level option, not a verified replacement for a specific Thermo Scientific model. Confirm your plate geometry, working volume and bead-kit method before changing separators. Thermo Scientific is a trademark of its owner; Blue Tiger Scientific is not affiliated with or endorsed by that brand.
R0096 is specified for 96-well PCR, assay, deep-well and elution plates. Manufacturer photographs show several plate styles, but a 96-well label alone does not establish fit for every plate. Check that your selected plate seats correctly and that the well bottoms align with the magnetic array.
The ordering unit is one R0096 magnetic bead separation plate. The laboratory plates and colored liquids in the photographs illustrate use and are not included. Select the plates, beads and chemistry separately for your protocol.
R0096 is the plate-format separator for 96-well workflows. R0215 is a reversible tube rack for 8 x 1.5/2.0 mL microtubes or 16 x 0.1/0.2 mL PCR tubes. R0250 is the larger conical-tube rack with three 15 mL positions and three 50 mL positions on opposite sides of the support.
R0096 uses a 96-position ring-shaped magnetic array below the laboratory plate. The magnetic field attracts responsive beads during the separation step. Bead collection behavior and recovery depend on the plate, bead chemistry and sample; use the reagent supplier’s instructions to establish the aspiration position and separation time.
R0096 performs magnetic bead separation, not centrifugation, and it does not dispense liquids, mix samples or automate a purification method. Use it for manual bead-based methods designed for magnetic separation. It is not a substitute for centrifugation steps that your method specifically requires.
There is no single R0096 separation time that applies to every bead kit and sample. Follow the bead-kit protocol and confirm that the beads have collected before aspirating. Keep pipette tips clear of the bead deposit and avoid transferring bead-containing liquid into the next step.
When your protocol calls for resuspension, remove the laboratory plate from the separator before mixing as instructed by the bead-kit supplier. Keep the R0096 seating surface clean and dry, and check that the plate sits level before the next separation. Follow laboratory chemical-safety procedures and do not assume the separator is autoclavable.
