Multichannel dispensing system

High throughput 8-channel picolitre dispensing system.

The Pico A instrument is designed for high-throughput manufacturing applications. The multichannel dispensing system features 8 independently operated picolitre dispensing channels. The samples are aspirated from a standard 96-well plate into each of the 8 disposable dispensing cartridges. Each channel is calibrated for the particular liquid to be dispensed and any liquid may be dispensed from any channel as required by your application. Dispensing cartridges are available in boxes of 96 units. Applications include the manufacturing of sensors and Lab-on-a-Chip (LoC) devices.
