Cell culture harvester
PerkinElmer, Inc.

Harvesting cells is fast and easy with PerkinElmer's FilterMate™ Universal Harvester. The Filtermate Universal Harvester is a compact, versatile system that harvests 24 or 96 samples simultaneously onto solid filer supports or into microplates. Speed and simplicity are the primary strengths of the Filtermate Harvester. From beginning to end, the FilterMate system is easy to use.

- Short fluid path - minimizes the amount of wash fluid required and ensures more complete washing
- Separate hot and cold waste lines― helps minimize radioactive waste
- Versatile base unit- enables switching from 96- to 24-well format and back in just a few minutes
- Built-in scrubbers- make it easy to detach adherent cells from well bottoms and ensure complete harvesting

With any FilterMate model, it takes only minutes to process and transfer samples - onto integrated filter plates such as UniFilter® plates for counting on TopCount; onto dedicated filtermats for counting on MicroBeta; or onto plain filtermats with the OmniFilter™ harvester configuration. With the OmniFilter FilterMate, you can leave filtermats intact and count them on a TopCount, or cut them into individual filter disks and transfer them easily into individual gamma or liquid scintillation counting vials for counting on a WIZARD or Tri-Carb. The UniFilter and MicroBeta FilterMate Harvesters are available in stainless steel to provide increased resistance to TCA (trichloroacetic acid).
