Determination of residual volumes during use with the automated pipetting system Eppendorf epMotion®
contributed by Eppendorf |
Introduction
Challenging demands are placed on consumables used in automated applications, especially when focusing on avoiding sample loss or providing reproducible experimental conditions. In this Technical Report, we have compared deepwell plates in 96 well as well as 384 well format from different manufacturers, with a focus on residual volume following sample recovery using the pipetting system epMotion®. Superior quality in both plate design and manufacturing of the Eppendorf Deepwell Plates is demonstrated by minimal residual volume of solution remaining in the well. Furthermore, the amount of liquid is nearly identical in each well.
