Patent awarded for liquid droplet dispensing
Patent covers the mechanism that facilitates the superior accuracy of Spot On technology in dispensing across the large volume range from over 50 microlitres to less than 50 nanolitres
Designed for use in automated systems, the Equator HTS/2 has two automated plate positions.
Both plate positions in the HTS/2 are accessible to robotic arms, enabling unattended operation.
The two plate positions can be used as source and destination plate positions, or as dual destination plates using a separate on-deck reagent reservoir.
In field testing, the HTS/2 has been used to set up one thousand 384-well plates/day.
Deerac's products are based on the patented Spot-on technology, the Equator and Latitude liquid handling systems provide high speed, low microlitre and sub-microlitre liquid handling for genomics, proteomics, and high-throughput screening applications.
In addition, because of the simple valve design, it can be used with cells and beads with lifetime in excess of hundreds of thousands of dispenses.
Deerac Fluidics, based in Dublin, Ireland, also maintains a US subsidiary with offices in Cambridge, MA.
Deerac is a global leader in the development and production of reliable, robust and user friendly liquid handling solutions, enabling the dispensing of microlitre and nanolitre volumes of a wide range of fluids.
