Even with optional stackers to hold up to 25 standard height plates and a barcode reader that increases traceability and enables multiple experimental designs to be executed in one unattended process; the system will comfortably fit inside a biological safety cabinet. Useful when dispensing cells, which the TEMPEST excels at.
The positive displacement microdiaphragm dispensing technology means that reagents, beads, and cells do not pass through any harsh mechanical solenoid valves. This improves cell viability and prevents clogging that frequently hampers dispensing with other systems. The unique recirculating prime feature also ensures that cells and beads remain in suspension and helps to achieve uniform & reproducible results even across long dispensing runs. Recirculating during priming also helps to reduce waste of precious reagents; a non-recoverable dead volume of <40µL.
The chip-based diaphragm dispensing technology enables the TEMPEST to dispense a broad range of liquids, from solvents including DMSO, aqueous reagents, and even highly viscous liquids without needing to perform any calibration steps. The chips are even automatically cleaned ready for their next use, and the next use, and the next use - up to 1 million dispense cycles without loss of performance. This economical and eco-friendly method of dispensing will prevent the expense and waste of thousands of pipette tips over the lifetime of the system.
Application areas include - cell dispensing for cell culture and cell-based assays; assay development; high throughput screening; time course and kinetic assays; dose-response curves; ELISA; qPCR and NGS. The intuitive software allows users to create even complex dispense protocols in minutes and is capable of importing data from plate readers, design of experiment software and other external sources.
Compatible with SBS/ANSI standard labware 6 / 12 / 24 / 48 / 96 / 386 / 1536 well plates, can also handle deep-well plates.
Fast: dispense 5µL to 96 well plate in 4 seconds; 10µL to 384 well plate in 9 seconds; 200nL to 1536 well plate in 11 seconds.
Precise: CV <5% at 1 µL, <8% at 0.2 µL... Read More | The F.A.S.T.
