Abstract

The present invention provides fluid removal heads and related multi well container processing systems for the efficient removal of fluids from multi-well containers. Methods of removing fluid from multi-well containers are also provided.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to US Provisional Application No. 60 / 598,994, filed August 4, 2004, the contents of which are incorporated herein in their entirety. technical field [0003] The present invention generally relates to the processing of multi-well containers in which materials, such as fluids, are removed from and / or dispensed into these containers. Background technique [0004] Multi-well vessels are rapidly becoming the standard format used in many modern pharmaceutical invention and development processes, including various biochemical and cellular assays. For example, numerous common cell assay steps are performed sequentially in multi-well vessels in parallel. These assay steps include steps such as dispensing and removing cell culture media, washing cells, dosing cells with a candidate drug, culturing cells for propagation, and probing cellular responses. Advantages of these methods of screening c...
