Aurora Instruments Ltd.,
a world leader in lab automation solutions, will showcase the new VERSA
TM 10
Automated
Liquid Handling Workstation at Analytica
(hall A1, stand 225) in Germany. The VERSA 10 has been developed to simplify
laborious routine protocols by combining automated multi-channel dispensing (4 or 8 channels), with single-channel,
cherry-picking functionality. The customizable system set-up, and optional deck
modules allow users to automate a range of applications such as
PCR/qPCR plate formatting, sequence reaction set-up, enzymatic modifications,
and general liquid handling. Accommodating all common reagents and labware, the
compact VERSA 10 offers liquid handling automation at an affordable price,
making it ideal in hospital
research, diagnostics, and agriculture research laboratories.
The
VERSA 10 accommodates 96- and 384-well formats, and allows PCR set-up in
96-well plates in only 6 minutes. Each dispense is highly accurate, and the air
displacement pipetting prevents cross-contamination - an essential requirement
for DNA and other studies - so researchers can be sure of reliable and
reproducible results. Optional modules such as plate heaters, reagent coolers,
and shakers enhance the workstation's functionality, and with lab space at a
premium, the VERSA 10 has been designed with the smallest possible footprint to
fit in limited bench top spaces. The VERSA 10 therefore offers users a
customized automated liquid handling system designed to meet their required
applications, which maximizes throughput within a compact footprint.
Also
on show at the Aurora Instruments stand (hall A1, stand 225) at Analytica, are
the VERSA 1100 SPE
solid
phase extraction workstation, the
VERSA
1100 NAP/PCR system for genomic applications, and the
VERSA
110 Spotter for arraying nucleic acids and proteins.
Visitors to the stand will also be able to see Aurora Instruments' analytical
product line, which includes the TRACE 1300
atomic
absorption spectrometer the LUMINA 3330
atomic
fluorescence spectrometer and the TRANSFORM 800 for
microwave
digestion.
