Plates between instruments
An arm on a rail carries plates between the liquid handler, shaker, plate reader and fridge, and a gripper works a pipette for small-volume transfers. The instruments stay as they are.
- Serial dilutions and plate prep
- Kinetic reads on a schedule, overnight included
- Every plate tracked through the protocol

The work around the analyzer
Receiving, sorting, centrifuging, loading, archiving: the hands-on steps on both sides of the analyzer. The bench simulation above runs one tube through all of them.
- Unbag, inspect and check tubes into the LIS
- Sort, spin, aliquot and load analyzer racks
- Unload, recap and archive at 4°C
