So although the technique has more functionality than say using a multichannel pipetter (unlimited aspiration and dispensing volume, can be used with different types of pipette tips and different types of liquid handling techniques like (piezoelectric, | So although the technique has more functionality than say using a multichannel pipetter (unlimited aspiration and dispensing volume, can be used with different types of pipette tips and different types of liquid handling techniques like (piezoelectric, | ||

The camera is positioned to the side of the deck and is used for taking photos. This functions as an Internet-of-thing tool that runs a messaging subscriber that responds to programmatically published messages through the LabAutoBox automation scheduler software. |
