Easy Like IHCby Assay Upp

32 samples without disappearing into a plate.

When bead-based workflows grow beyond 8 or 16 samples, plate-format magnetic separation can start to look like the obvious next step. ClearUpp32 gives you another option: 32 individual PCR tubes arranged as two rows of sixteen.

The higher-throughput format keeps each sample individually accessible, and the tube-by-tube layout keeps the beads in view during aspiration and wash steps. You get more capacity without giving up the visual control of working in tubes.

Higher throughput

Process up to 32 PCR-tube samples in one rack instead of splitting the batch across smaller separators.

Keep samples visible

Individual PCR tubes remain directly visible and accessible throughout the magnetic-separation workflow.

Plate alternative

A practical option for medium-throughput workflows where you want more capacity without moving the separation step into a plate.

Benchmarked against commercial alternatives.

ClearUpp32 has been benchmarked in our hands against commercial magnetic-separation racks under comparable conditions and showed similar separation performance.

That is also why we are comfortable offering a simple performance guarantee: if you are unhappy with how it performs as a magnetic separator, we will refund your purchase.

Care & handling

  • Clean by wiping with a damp cloth.

  • Do not autoclave.

Magnet warning: Contains strong permanent magnets. Keep away from magnetically sensitive equipment and magnet-sensitive implanted medical devices.

Why 3D printing here?

This rack is manufactured in PETG using a controlled additive-manufacturing process. For a specialised tool produced in relatively small series, this lets us keep the geometry tied closely to the workflow and improve the design without waiting for a new mould.
