Autosampler:
ASX
- High sample throughput of up to 192 samples from 96 well plates
- High-precision injection down to 10 µL sample volume
- Compatible with all Anton Paar flow-through cells: Flow Cell, Tube Cell, SiN Cell
- Minimal bench space required
Anton Paar’s ASX autosampler can be used in combination with all Anton Paar flow-through cells for high-throughput screening and temperature-dependent SAXS and WAXS studies. It is available in two versions, the standard version working at ambient temperatures and the ASX-c version with a cooling option.
Key features
High-throughput screening of up to 192 samples
ASX is a robust high-throughput autosampler for sampling up to 192 samples from 96-well plates. It works with a high-resolution syringe control which ensures high-precision injection of sample volumes down to 10 µL for temperature-dependent SWAXS studies.
Its design requires little bench space and you can choose to connect the ASX autosampler to the SAXSpoint 5.0 or SAXSpace system as needed. It is fully operated and controlled via the SAXSdrive software and easily programed for sample sequences. The standard ASX version works under ambient conditions. For temperature-sensitive samples we recommend the autosampler version with a cooling option, ASX-c, which cools down to 4 °C.
ASX autosampler for all flow-through cells for SWAXS studies
The ASX autosampler works with all flow-through cells together with the respective sample stage (TCStage and Heated Sampler). For temperature-dependent SAXS and WAXS investigations, choose from:
- FlowCell – equipped with a low-noise 1 mm quartz capillary
- Tube Cell – with high chemical and thermal stability
- SiN Cell – the unique low-parasitic cell
You can easily program measurements and washing cycles with different washing solutions via the SAXSdrive software. This defines how the sample is injected and removed and how the flow-through cell is rinsed between the single measurements.
