Liquid handling on a nanoliter scale

The group possesses strong expertise on liquid handling of nanoliter volumes using advanced nanodispensing technologies. Currently several systems are combined to achieve a maximal robust and flexible worflow in the µPCR Chip platform. Piezo dispensing is especially used for applications with very flexible dispensing requirements:

In case of fast filling of relatively large volumes such as 50 - 200 nl the 96-nozzle dispenser inL10 from Caliper LS is used:
