Microlab Prep Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is the volumetric range for dispensing?
1 µL to 1 mL
-
How many 96-well plates can be prepped at once?
It depends. There are 8 ANSI/SLAS footprint positions on the Microlab Prep’s deck, but you’ll need to make room for other important elements in a protocol like pipetting tips, reagent, or even a device like the Hamilton Heater Shaker.
-
Is the Prep compatible with a 96-well head for dispensing?
The Prep can pipette to 96-well plates, but not with a 96-well head. The Prep can either come with 2 Independent Channels or one 8-Probe Head, or both. This means that it could prepare a 96 well plate 8 wells at a time.
