Unmatched volume range flexibility
Handle applications from nanoliter assay reagent dispensing to milliliter culture media preparation. Single instrument replaces multiple liquid handlers. Ideal for reagent plate preparation, bulk dispensing, and cell culture workflows. Seamlessly transition between low and high volumes in a single protocol.
Non-contact dispensing for diverse applications
Dispense into any vessel type without cross-contamination risk. Ideal for filling reagent reservoirs, preparing master mixes, cell culture media distribution, and creating stock solutions. Compatible with aqueous, organic, and viscous solutions including cell suspensions and magnetic beads.
Reagent conservation with precision dispensing
Minimize reagent waste with accurate dispensing across the entire volume range. Dead volume <100 µL per source. Pre-prime syringes to ensure first-dispense accuracy. Temperature control options for thermally sensitive reagents.
Automation-ready design
Integrate with robotic systems, incubators, and other laboratory equipment. Barcode readers for inventory tracking. Scheduling software for unattended overnight operation. LIMS connectivity for data management.
