Zusammenfassung:Methods and apparatus are adapted to wash magnetic particles isolated in a vessel. The methods include providing a vessel with wash liquid and a layer of magnetic particles, providing a probe having aspiration capability, positioning a probe tip above the layer of magnetic particles, aspirating at least some of the wash liquid above the layer, positioning the probe tip below the layer, and aspirating at least some of the wash liquid from below the layer of magnetic particles. The suction may be turned off as the probe tip descends past the layer. A novel magnetic particle washing apparatus are disclosed.
