Do You Know ?
It was only in the beginning of 20th century that first all glass
syringes came into existence. However with the passage of time there has
been a sea change in the way syringes are made and their applications in
complex experiments. These days highly precise syringes with fine
needle, find application in gas chromatographs and other quantitative
analysis experiments that requires operation without any chances of
error.

Laboratory Liquid Handling System plays a pivotal role in laboratories. For the success of any
experiment the credit goes to the researcher, doctor, but without the humble
pipettes, pipette tips, shakers, filters and their reliable manufacturers no
result could be successful. Just take the the example of a medical
laboratory that is supposed to analyze thousands of samples in a day and
then consequently release the results. Success of the outcome of the tests to a large extent can be attributed to the series of liquid handling products used in the laboratory.
It is no surprise that every company
dealing with the laboratory equipment these days, manufactures and caters to
the burgeoning liquid handling equipment.
Trends in the Liquid Handling Equipment
Automated Liquid Handling Equipment : With the advancement in
technology the manufactures of liquid handling systems have not stayed far
behind and they had responded with a new concept in liquid handling
technology which is called automated liquid handling equipment. To give an
illustration industries involved in the field of drug discovery and research
use automated liquid handling systems for executing high throughput
screening assays and genomic analysis. The liquid handling systems have been
able to provide smaller sample volumes along with the capacity to dispense
without any contact.
Miniaturization : Another concept that is driving constant
innovation in the laboratory liquid handling equipment is the propensity of
the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors towards miniaturization. This
has made liquid handling equipment to precisely deliver low volume reagents
to operations involving high-density plates.
