V8 Integrated Technology Solution
• XYZ arm picks up sample and diluent for stacking
• Diluent is contained in the on-board reagent bay
• Separated protein fractions pass by the UV detector

1. The sample migrates by traveling into the buffer. The interface between the diluent and buffer lines up the proteins.

2. The aligned proteins are more effectively visualized by the detector resulting in higher peak efficiency, and greater clarity for clinicians.
