Ats-100       Acoustic (non-contact) Liquid Dispenser

• Affordable non-contact, acoustic liquid dispenser. Low energy acoustics used, safe for all biological fluids (including cells).
• Capable of plate reformatting, compound library screening, assay development, cherry picking and serial dilutions (IC50s) in and out of 384, 1536 and 3456 well plates.
• Precise and controlled transfer of chemical and biological compounds. Suitable for dispensing wide range of fluids (e.g. 100% DMSO, aqueous buffers, glycerol solutions). Standard unit is able to dispense between 1.0 - 1000nl.
• Creates non-contact quantitative microarrays, even on top of existing arrays. Suitable for use with proteins, tissues and whole blood. This option is able to dispense volumes between 250pl - 250nl.
• Easily integrated to produce a complete high throughput screening system.
• Low dead volumes (e.g. <1.0ul for 1536 well plate).
• Protocols are remotely configured and downloaded to ats-100 for processing. Software is designed to handle multiple source plates, only one file required for cherry picking.
• Continuously drains wells from top to bottom, independent of neighbouring liquid levels. Real-time measurement of all liquid levels in all wells performed.
