in sextuplicate
These Latin roots (duplicate, triplicate, quadruplicate, etc.) are used in English as well. However, anything beyond triplicate is rather uncommon, so you won't find too many references, either in English or in Spanish, on the web.
The assay was performed in sixtuplicate, or the measurement was based on a sextuplicate assay.
"Results show mean of measurements conducted in sextuplicate ± s.d."

Charles Davis
: Certainly used in the field, and important to capture the point that these are not just six assays but the same assay performed six times
