Abstract: Sample preparation device and method particularly useful for large volume capture and small volume elution. The device comprising a manifold, a sample holder or reservoir, and a filter unit containing chromatography media such that a filtration path is established between the sample holder, the filter unit and the manifold. Upon subjecting the sample in the sample holder to a driving force such as vacuum, the sample flows through the chromatography media in the filter unit. Molecules of interest bind to the media and any unwanted molecules can be washed under vacuum mode. Elution can then be carried out by removing the filter unit and subjecting the media to a driving force such as vacuum or centrifugation. In another embodiment, molecules of interest can be eluted into a low volume centrifugal spinner directly in the manifold.

Abstract: A system for holding a multiple welled plate during processing comprised of a multiple welled plate, typically containing 96, 384 or more individual wells, each having an open bottom closed by a membrane and a holder for such a plate. The holder is formed with a filter support portion that supports the lower surface of the filter during processing. The holder may optionally be thermally conductive or if not thermally conductive, may include an additional thermally conductive layer between the lowermost surface of the filter and the filter support portion to provide for thermal cycling applications.
