Brings intuitive automation, precision and speed to every lab in a smaller footprint for accurate results every time.
The I.DOT MINI comes equipped with DropDetection, providing users the ability to detect when users run out of source liquid.
DropDetection is a patented feature that detects and counts every droplet released during a single dispensing run. It’s a simple and powerful tool enabling droplet verification and protocol optimization.
This innovative solution, mounted under the source well of the I.DOT MINI features a miniaturized light barrier to detect changes in light intensity as drops pass the photoelectric barrier between the source well and the target plate.
After the dispensing run, DropDetection delivers color-coded results (green for a successful deposit and red for an error) that are conveniently stored in a file for easy access.
This lightweight liquid handler uses a single positive pressure channel to generate droplets as small as 8 nanoliters through a nozzle in the well and can produce up to 100 droplets per second.
Accuracy:
Built-in droplet verification
I.DOT MINI‘s droplet detection has the capabil- ity to detect when users run out of source liquid and can verify total dispense value.
Eliminate carryover and cross contamination:
The technology enables droplets to be dispensed into the target plate below the source plate. I.DOT MINI eliminates carryover and cross-contamination.
Speed:
Dispense 10 nanoliters across a 96-well plate in 10 seconds and across a 384-well plate in 20 seconds for 50nl.
Flexible:
Rapidly dispense into any SBS target plate, including 96-, 384- and 1536-well plates of a maximum height of 16 mm.
Low dead volume:
Well reservoir design ensures dead volume < 1 μl for H20.
Large dynamic range:
Dispenses 8 nl to 50 nl if a single source liquid at a time.
