Waters - Intelligent Electronic Pipettes
Pipette+ exploits connected electronic pipettes that can execute laboratory protocols designed in OneLab, reducing the bench workload by 90%. These intelligent electronic pipettes are controlled by cloud software for superior performance, ergonomics and simplicity of use, minimizing execution errors and providing full experimental traceability.
Here are a few examples of how Pipette+ can benefit your lab. Set up in in-a-few-clicks, it can save you 90% of the time required by conventional manual pipetting methods, whilst providing superior repeatability and the added bonus of full traceability.
Pipette+ comprises smart electronic pipettes connected via bluetooth to a charging stand, and a full computer inside the charging stand that is connected in its turn with OneLab.
At each protocol step during experiment execution, Pipette+ processes the OneLab instructions, setting the required parameters on the pipettes to be used and removing the need of manipulating the pipettes settings (especially difficult with gloves and inside hoods).
For example, OneLab sets the aspiration volumes, dispensing volumes, mixing volumes and tip ejection for you – as and when required.
The Andrew Alliance bluetooth pipettes are manufactured by Sartorius, the inventor of electronic pipettes.
We have worked together with the market-leader of electronic pipettes to enable intelligent communication via Bluetooth with the Pipette+ stand, and to enable the smart stand to communicate with the external world: OneLab.
Single and multichannel pipettes are automatically identified by the stand when the user deposits the pipettes on its slots, and they are charged, monitored, paired and registered transparently without the user even being aware of it. Flawless and seamless traceability, without additional work.
Reproducibility and full traceability of biological experiments is assured by means of software assistance through a highly intuitive browser-based software environment. the OneLab Laboratory Software enables scientists to graphically describe their protocols first, and then be guided step-by-step during the experiment execution. This eliminates incorrect volume setting, miscalculations, or forgetting tip ejection and mixing steps.
Thanks to OneLab compatible devices, you will be able to control other connected devices such as a shaker, a heater/cooler, etc
All of this without the work involved in manually setting them up, and with the added advantage of full traceability.
A biologist typically spends more than two hours per day pipetting. Pipette+ helps users greatly reduce time spent in repetitive pipette manipulations, where operator mistakes are often unavoidable.
For example, in concentration normalization, the time spent in executing an experiment can be reduced by as much as 90%.
In many experimental situations traceability is as important as obtaining a correct result. With Pipette+, all pipette information is preserved indefinitely inside OneLab without the need for any user intervention, and all pipetting steps that have been executed – including possible errors – are recorded too.
Pipetting parameters, such as volumes, repetitive and reverse mode, are set up automatically. This ensures accurate execution of the protocol and reduces pipetting errors.
Pipette+ also minimizes unnecessary repetition of experiments, and reduces costly waste of valuable samples and reagents.
