Abstract

See full text

A system for the automated hybridization of a plurality of microarray slides. The system comprises an enclosure with a wash basin having an open top end, a lower carrier rotor disposed within the wash basin on a support axle for receiving a plurality of microarray slide substrates, and an upper clamp rotor disposed above the lower carrier rotor on the support axle for receiving a plurality of disposable mixers. The system is further configured so that lowering the upper clamp rotor to engage with the lower carrier rotor couples the plurality of mixers to the plurality of slide substrates to form a plurality of sealed reaction chambers, and raising the upper clamp rotor to disengage from the lower carrier rotor de-couples the plurality of mixers from the plurality of slide substrates to unseal the plurality of reaction chambers.
