BioApp Solutions Boosts Productivity and Reproducibility with INTEGRA Biosciences’ Pipettes.
Director and Co-founder, Mohammed Abrar, described the benefits for the lab: “We use the VIAFLO96 for sample dilutions and mixing, extracting supernatants, and sample loading during supported liquid extraction protocols. Pipetting protocols for labor-intensive tasks can be intuitively and conveniently programmed into the pipette. This has greatly improved our productivity, giving us time to focus on stimulating tasks and helping to safeguard our mental and physical health. The instrument performs all liquid handling steps exactly the same way each time, improving pipetting consistency and reproducibility of results by eliminating manual errors and inter-analyst variability. The VIAFLO 96 has proven to be a great fit for us in terms of price, footprint, functionality and ease of use”.
BioApp also acquired a selection of 5 single and multichannel manual pipettes in volumes from 2-300 µL for smaller sample numbers and volumes, and for spiking samples with known concentrations of analytes in preliminary studies. Having several pipettes dedicated to different tasks helps to reduce the risk of cross-contamination and provides added flexibility, alleviating throughput limitations. “INTEGRA’S products are extremely robust and reliable. We use them all day, every day, and we’ve never experienced any problems, enabling us to avoid unplanned downtime. Our pipettes will be crucial as we continue to expand our in-house analytical and method development capabilities”, Mohammed concluded.
