Nanopipetting on Star line workstations
With the Nanodispenser module, Hamilton offers a new extension for the Star workstation that allows nanolitre and microlitre pipetting to be performed on the same instrument
The nanopipetting module consists of a eight-channel module with individual control of each channel and standard 9mm spacing plus one optional independent channel Each channel has a volume range of 25nl to 1000nl, depending on the viscosity of the pipetted liquid

Ether can be pipetted with ADC technology
With the new anti droplet control (ADC), Hamilton introduces an innovation for pipetting volatile organic solvents, demonstrating the technological advances of the Star's monitored air displacement
The Hamilton nanopipetting application distinguishes itself by providing the option of monitoring each pipetting step using patented Seyonic Mems flow sensors and pipetting technology to detect foam, clogs or insufficient sample liquid during aspiration.
The flow sensors control volume in real time and automatically compensate for variations in sample liquid viscosity.
This eliminates the need for individual liquid classes and assures accurate pipetting of a wide range of liquids repeatably and reliably.
Users can combine the Nanodispensing module with one to 12 individual microlitre pipetting channels and a 96/384 probe pipetting head on one and the same system.
