By any chance does anyone know of a company that could either apply or preferably burn with a laser a barcode onto a 2.0mL conical screw cap tube. We will...
D W, TradeWinds has a great technology for burning the barcodes: Jinghua Schneider TWD Inc.-Innovative Laboratory Products (TradeWinds Direct, inc.) LakeView...
"D W [biorobotdude@...]", hmmm, it sounds like you're talking about glass tubes(?). If you can get by with polypro and slightly smaller size you might...

Dear DW, There are any number of companies that can do the laser engraving so here are a few pointers that might be applicable regardless of which one you...
D W, Another system that could be used is from SSI Robotics: http://www.ssirobotics.com/Bio-Med-Pharma.html#Vial It can be configured for barcode label...
I have a laser engraver at the house if you'd like to try something. I don't have a business and couldn't produce hundreds of items, but for exploratory...
Thank you Kevin Olsen. That was one of the most complete and helpful posts I have seen in awhile. Is anyone using RFID for these sorts of applications? Do...

At the house? Talk about taking your work home with you. Kevin...
Does anyone know of a device or company that seals plates by laser or sonication? Are there other methods for sealing plates (besides adhesive seals and heat...
I am trying to measure the air volume over the liquid in a perhaps blocked filter tube using a syringe and a column of air containing a bolus of liquid. I can...
"What are the types of MALDI labware you use? (Bruker 400µm, ABI, Waters, etc.)" I've had experience with the Bruker Anchor chip, Axima, Sequenom, and an...

We have prototyped a plate sealer using our sonication technology but it's not ready for prime time as yet. Laser sealing would be great and we have looked at...
Dear nxhiker, KBiosciences out of the UK seems to have a new laser sealer ********************* A. Mark Bramwell Vice President of Corporate Development ...
try decreasing the diameter of the tube and/or decreasing the 'wettability' of the tube material. capillary pressure will help stabilize the interface. da...
We're considering purchasing a Chemspeed robot for high throughput catalyst work. I have the manufacturer's literature but I am interested in seeing an...
Hi, There was a poster about laser sealing (with samples which looked promising) at the SBSconference in Sep04: Jon Curtis, Phil Robinson and John Comley from...
Thanks David. In this case both the material and the diameter are externally specified. Do you think new Teflon tubing would be helpful? I could try out my...
Hi Please see the link below http://www.kbioscience.co.uk/instrumentation/lasersealing/index.htm This may fulfil your requirements Sean Scotcher Future...
Hello Does anybody have any experience of these syringe pumps. They are markedly cheaper than the "Standard" Harvard 22. http://www.syringepump.com/index.htm ...
John, Newer tubing might not help. It might make it worse if it has less wettability. What you need now is controlling the speed of the bolus, either with...
Hello I don't have a Chemspeed, and we are in Canada, but we have developed and are beginning to market a parallel synthesis system based on the Tecan Genesis....
Hi John, They are great pumps. Are missing some of the very slow flow rates, but actually communicate better with the PC than Harvard. I used them at NIST and...
newer or acid washing the old tubing might help, but if you're using both aqueous and organic liquids, optimizing for one might adversely affect the other. not...
Hello I am writing an application which changes the tips for each sample move, but not for repeated dispensing of diluent. Is it the normal thing to start an...
