WE use Hamilton syringes for 64 well gels too. We haven't have any needles
blocked, yet. I wonder what is the proper care for those needles. Some suggest
cleaning with water afterwards, other suggest cleaning with ethanol
afterwards. Any experience out there?

We just start trying Prism strip tips. They fit into wells nicely, but we have
not come into the conclusion that they are really better than Hamiltons, yet.
