Liquid handling products

Wash station for pipettes
Wash Stations

Wash stations for pipette tips enable the possibility of recycling these dispensers. Normally these tools work with two peristaltic pumps (one for perfusing the wash station and the other for collecting the waste). Also these wash stations also work with a syringe pump that is used for perfusing the inside of the pipette tip while the tips are also being washed outside using the wash peristaltic pump.

Pressure compensation module
Pressure Compensation Module

The pressure compensation vessel (PCV) just helps control the liquid level in the pipettes. It has an electrocaloric liquid level sensor that is used as a closed feedback loop for controlling the liquid level in the bottle. So the bottle has inside a heater and heat sensor that is positioned in a waterproof container. There is an Arduino microcontroller that is used for controlling the feedback. More details about how it works is posted here. The system includes:

  • 500ml bottle with modified hood for connecting liquid input, output, electrocaloric sensor and air stone filter
  • Tubing
  • Bottle clamp for mounting
  • Waterproof electrocaloric sensor
  • Peristalic pump
  • Control electronics, command line software and power supply.

    • Multichannel syringe pipetter
    Multichannel syringe pump for 8 syringes

    This is an 8 syringe multichannel stepper motor driven syringe pump. It works with disposable syringes which can be easily sterilized. The system can be used to do accurate liquiding handling this is demonstrated here. The system includes:

  • 8 diposable 1ml syringes (that are autoclaveable)
  • Arduino microcontroller based control electronics (command line interface software can work with any computer)
  • 12 volt power supply
  • Tubing and luer-lock fittings
  • Mechanical endstop homing

    • Servo valve for liquid handling
    Servo driven microfluidic stop-cock valve

    This is the design of the servo-driven stop cock valve that works with the stepper motor driven syringe pump. These valves can be positioned into 4 different ways. Input is where fluid is drawn from the reagent reservoir (like a pressure compensation vessel) to the syringe. Output is where the fluid is pushed from the syringe pump towards the dispensers. Bypass is where the fluid paths are closed. Closed is where the syringe pump to the dispenser is closed but the flow path from the reagent reservoir to the dispenser is open. Each of these flow paths are used for operation liquid handling processes. The system includes:

  • Servo
  • Polypropylene 3-way stop cock valve
  • Tubing and Luer-lock fittings
  • Optional: 5 volt power supply
  • Optional: Arduino based control electronics (command line interface software can work with any computer)
  • Optional: Raspberry Pi internet-of-thing (IoT) controller running web based GUI and MQTT client
