Latitude provides the capability to dispense up to four different reagents for high speed, low-volume applications, such as HTS
Deerac Fluidics announces the release of a four reagent, 16-channel Latitude reagent dispenser.
According to David Lorenz, VP sales and marketing, "Almost as soon as we had launched the Latitude earlier this year, we received requests for additional reagent capabilities".
"This new Latitude is a direct response to those requests from our customers".
The Latitude family of products now offers the capability to dispense from one to four reagents, across a wide range of volumes (0.05 to 50ul).
Dispense capabilities include gradients by row or column and across the plate, as well as region dispenses.
It has a single, robot-friendly, plate position which can handle all well plate formats 96, 384, and 1536 well plates.
The Latitude has a simple to use touch screen display, and does not require a PC.
The Latitude can be used as either a stand alone reagent dispenser or integrated into a fully automated robotic system.
The Latitude is based on Deerac Fluidics proprietary spot-on low-volume dispensing technology.
The technology enables high speed, non-contact dispensing for low volume assays.
For example, a 1536-well plate can be filled in less than 15 seconds.
