The second module installed at Rothamsted Research performs the wet chemistry processes on the plant material. Samples are diluted, mixed, incubated, capped, automatically loaded and unloaded from a centrifuge, de-capped and then sub sampled into target vials (NMR, ESI-MS vials). The process is fully automated and has the capacity to operate for 72 hours without intervention.
