  • To protect valuable reagents and samples, the well reservoir’s design ensures dead volume below 1 µL

Application

  • Compound dispensing
    • Small molecules are dispensed in aqueous solutions or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)
  • Assay development
    • Provides direct dilution steps and multiplexed dispensing of drugs, small molecules, nucleic acids, and other substances. Ideal for creating unique experiments
  • Genomics and proteomics
    • Utilizes miniaturization, low-volume dispensing, and low dead volume to effectively dispense for PCR, extraction, and clean-ups
  • Cell dispensing
    • Organoids to cells in suspension can be consistently dispensed while preserving high cell viability
