Can I just remind everyone that Scott is looking for Replicator users, not providers. It sounds like he would like input from end users on what works or...
Hi John In over 200 robot installations only one customer has ever asked us for the DLLs and what they do. Even our ActiveX interface is rarely used. Any...
something like this would be great A wide volume range low volume 100nL up to 2mL with Interchangeable 96-384 heads We like disposable tips unless a fast wash...
In screening enzyme inhibitors to determine IC-50 or Ki values, one problem is how to distinguish between two interpretations of the same data. The same or ...
Hi, what do you want to do? Mother-daughter replication of 96, 384, 1536 well plates? Which replication steps, 96 to 96, 96 to 384, .......? We use for our...
John, I have to agree with David. The programming skills of our customer bases vary so widely that a significant amount of effort (money) would have to go into...
Another concern that giving away .dll access to customers can bring up are warranty and service issues. It's difficult enough for suppliers and service...
Just want to pass on this message. This is a great forum with almost 1300 members. We don't want to dilute the intent of the discussion list, which is to be...
I think there are 2 issues here: Firmware API Sometimes the bottleneck is the Firmware, as one call to the API may result in 10 actions inside the firmware. ...

Dear Michelle, I currently use a Biotek ELX405 and its very good. Easy to use and to programm, the head is easily taken apart for washing and tip...
John, Some good feedback so far, here's my take. My background (about 18 yrs) has been in industrial automation for semiconductor, electronic, mechanical and...
Hello All, I am looking for a bar code solution for a Tecan Carousel Stacker. The unit has to be small enough to fit just under the "elevator". Must be capable...
Hello, There are small scanners from Microscan and Keyence. We've used theBL610H and it works well for code128s - as to running it under the genesis software...
Hi Rich, Check Opticon, Microscan and Keyence. Keyence has one of the smallest of the general purpose bar-code readers. From any of the manufacturer you are...
Dear fellow list members, I'm doing research on microarrays and their use and trying to better understand the trends in this space. I'm interested in speaking...
Hello, We are running various real time in-house PCR for diagnostic purposes. After accreditation and validation of our in-house PCR methods, we wish to...
Rich, We have a Tecan supplied barcode reader which fits exactly where you want. It is supported in the FACTS software. I suggest contacting your local sales...
Hi everyone, I am currently working on the validation of several liquid handling robot and I need some help to determine what kind of criteria I need to...
In our opinion the liquids that you pipette in your applications will decide on the lowest values of CV that you can achieve and with some customization (if...
The stackers on our 384 well FLIPR have failed a couple of times in the last 2 weeks and we're wondering if we could achieve more reliable plate handling by...
