In this short video Keith Albert, Senior Applications Specialist, gives an overview on how you can adjust pipetting variables to help optimize automated liquid handler (ALH) methods.  He will demonstrate this using the Artel MVS Multichannel Verification System as well as the Beckman Coulter Biomek automated liquid handler (ALH).

Adjusting Pipetting Variables to Optimize Methods

In this short video, Kaziya Lee, Applications Specialist, demonstrates the importance of using an appropriate test solution when optimizing a liquid handler to dispense master mix.

The Artel MVS Multichannel Verification System, PCRMix solution, and a Hamilton STARlet automated liquid handler (ALH) were used for this experiment.

Liquid Handler Performance - Testing with PCRMix

Automated liquid handlers (ALH) are great for improving productivity and reproducibility in the lab, but you can get even better performance—and correspondingly more reliable data—when you optimize the instrument for accurate liquid transfer.

In this video, we demonstrate how to adjust a linear based calibration curve (as in y = mx + b) on an automated liquid handler to improve performance.  


Liquid Class Optimization: Adjusting a Linear Based Calibration Curve 

Compatible with virtually all automated liquid handling systems and multichannel handheld pipettes, the Artel MVS sits on a mobile workstation for portable rapid calibration, verifications and optimization of dispensed volumes with high precision and accuracy.<br/><br/>The MVS’s unique, dual-dye photometric measurements are robust against environmental influences and traceable to SI units to enable comparison across operators, protocols, equipment, and locations. Using the Calibrator Plate, Verification Plates, and an Artel-certified Plate Reader, the MVS supports an unbroken chain of traceability to national and international standards.

MVS® Multichannel Verification System

Ensure accurate, precise volumes from every pipette and operator. The fast and easy-to-use PCS Pipette Calibration System provides everything you need to implement state-of-the-art pipette quality control—quickly and affordably.<br/><br/>artel.co/pcs
