Liquid Handling Performance & Quality Assurance: Gain Confidence with Game-Changing Strategies

Life Sciences, Laboratory Technology,
  • Thursday, August 10, 2023

In today’s climate of ever-increasing workloads and need for faster results, combined with staffing shortages, automation and standardization are key to success. Pipettes and liquid handlers are staples in most labs, with the trend to move towards lower volumes. Laboratories rely on those instruments for a variety of assays, from PCR to NGS library prep, from ELISA to HTS. These instruments are trusted to work as expected, and demonstrate the accuracy and precision needed to provide quality results, which help draw conclusions on a patient’s diagnosis or to launch a new drug on the market. With such high stakes, organizations need to ensure the verification of instrument performance and the proper training of staff responsible for handling the devices.

In this webinar, the featured experts will review the different instruments and workflows used for liquid handling, discuss and compare the different methods of calibration and volume verification available as they relate to lab regulations such as GMP, CLIA, ASTM and ISO, and discuss the importance of staff training. Through case studies and customer testimonials, the speakers will wrap up by demonstrating how Artel by Advanced Instruments can provide easy to use, efficient solutions to bring peace of mind to the liquid handling management process.

Join this webinar for an excursion in the world of liquid handling. Explore the instruments, calibration methods and staff training necessary to ensure accurate and reliable results.
