Hamilton announces the launch of its new MicroLab Nimbus automated pipetting platform.
Hamilton describes MicroLab Nimbus as the ideal platform for fast plate replication and serial dilutions.
It can also process single or dual nucleic acid separations, Maldi spotting as well as low-throughput Elisa, and other applications.
The body of the MicroLab Nimbus is designed to fit within a typical environmental hood.
Its base configuration consists of a 96 channel pipetting head using Hamilton's precision Co-Re tip technology.
The fixed deck has nine to 12 SBS labware positions.
Labware density is further enhanced by the utilisation of Hamilton's proprietary nested tip rack design, which allows for tips to be stacked up to four racks high on the MicroLab Nimbus deck.
A barcode scanner and labware gripper are available as options.
The gripper can reach beyond the front, back and left side of the instrument for custom integrations with other devices for expanded applications.
The pipettor is controlled by Hamilton's Vector software, the same software which controls all other Hamilton automated platforms including the popular medium throughput MicroLab Star.
In the coming months, the company will expand the range of applications available on the MicroLab Nimbus through the availability of additional optional equipment.
MicroLab Nimbus is aimed at the lower-throughput laboratory
