Flick ‘N Blot Magnetic Separation Plates Overview
Fast, Reliable, Pipette-Free Magnetic Bead Separation Alternative
What’s Flick ‘N Blot?
Engineered to remove supernatant and wash buffers efficiently. We’ve taken the versatility of our magnetic separation plates and developed a new system for scientists to simply ‘flick’ off the supernatants and wash buffers without disturbing your magnetic bead pellets and fear of losing samples.
By securing the microplate directly onto a magnetic separation plate, the entire assembly can be inverted and flicked, allowing the decanting of non-viscous supernatants while maintaining pellet integrity. This approach adapts the familiar ELISA plate wash decanting technique that’s now adapted for magnetic bead assays, eliminating the need for automated liquid handling systems or manual pipetting – ideal for budget-friendly high-throughput applications. Just flick ‘n blot!
System Compatibility:
Supported Plate Formats

- Corner-offset (center corner) pelleting
- Centralized bottom pelleting
Whether you’re running nucleic acid purifications, protein isolations, or immunoassays, Flick ‘N Blot simplifies your workflow and reduces consumable waste.
Optimizing Your Assay?
Selecting the optimal magnetic separation plate depends on several critical factors, including bead size, concentration, magnetic field geometry, and assay volume. We know how important precision and reproducibility are to your experiments.
