State of the art compact pipetting robot
Automated laboratory liquid handling system for medium throughput applications is particularly useful where bench space is limited
The new option combines the best of Tecan's liquid handling experience, giving customers the security of liquid level detection, down to 50ul of conductive liquid (only for the first tip), the flexibility of a large volume range: 2-1000ul, the efficiency of multi-pipetting with 1000 ul tips, and the reliability and precision of the Freedom Evo series.
The 8 Plus 1 Access arm makes routine pipetting tasks, including reagent distribution, serial dilutions and plate reformatting, fast and easy to set up, and is ideal for applications such as Elisa, PCR set-up and nucleic acid extraction.
For example, fitting a Freedom Evo 75 with this new option and a robotic manipulator (Roma) arm, offers a very economical solution for semi or full automation of Elisas, reducing the time-consuming reagent addition steps by more than 80% compared to using a single tip instrument.
The simple and efficient Freedom Evo 75 can be equipped with on-board incubation, plate storage, plate washing and plate reading all controlled seamlessly through our easy-to-use Freedom Evoware software.
