An acoustic liquid handler is required to enable the precise and accurate dispensing of small volumes of fluids into assay plates for downstream applications and to enable the miniaturisation of assays by handling nanolitre volumes. Uses will include compound management and dispensing of reagents, including DMSO, for high-throughput screening applications, functional screening and assay development activities. A system with non-contact transfer is required to eliminate the use of disposable tips, reduce the risk of cross-contamination between samples, and maintain sample integrity whilst minimising plastic waste generation.
