Laboratory Products 55 Next-Generation Liquid Handling Platform Meets Evolving Workfl ow Priorities
Beckman Coulter Life Sciences introduced Biomek i-Series Automated Workstations at the 2017 international conference of the Society for Laboratory Automation and Screening.
“Beckman Coulter Life Sciences is renewing its commitment to innovation, our partners and our customers with the introduction of the Biomek i-Series Automated Workstations,” said Demaris Mills, Vice President and General Manager, Beckman Coulter Life Sciences. “The platform is specifi cally designed to enable continuous innovation to help our customers meet the ever-changing demands of life science research by delivering improved levels of simplicity, effi ciency, adaptability and reliability.”
Extending the Biomek portfolio of automated liquid handlers, the i-Series enables a broader range of solutions for genomics, pharmaceutical, and academic customers. It takes the best of what has already made Biomek an industry-leading brand, combined with additions and enhancements directly inspired by customer input from around the world. The company carried out a worldwide dialogue with customers to identify both the overall direction for future product innovation as well as pinpointing key priorities.
“The challenge of being able to handle evolving workfl ow priorities, and walk away with confi dence knowing that remote access would make 24-hour monitoring, from any location, a reality, were identifi ed as crucial factors,” Mills pointed out.
Additional notable features and accessories include: exterior status light bar simplifi es your ability to monitor progress and system status during operation; biomek light curtain provides a key safety feature during operation and method development; internal LED light improves visibility during manual intervention and method start-up, reducing user error; off-set, rotating gripper optimises access to high-density decks leading to more effi cient workfl ows; large-volume, 1 mL multichannel pipetting head streamlines sample transfers and enables more effi cient mixing steps; spacious, open-platform design offers access from all sides, making it easy to integrate adjacent-to-deck, and off-deck processing elements (such as analytical devices, external storage/incubation units, and labware feeders); built-in tower cameras enable live broadcasting and on-error video capture to expedite response time if intervention is needed; Windows 10-compatible Biomek i-Series software provides the most sophisticated pipetting techniques available including automatic volume-splitting, and can interface
with third-party and all other Biomek support software. The Biomek i-Series Automated Workstations are available in two decks sizes and various pipetting confi gurations.

New Ultra-Microcomparator Takes Mass Calibration to New Limits
Mettler Toledo’s newly launched XPR6U ultra-microcomputer balance comes with the MC Link mass calibration software as standard to deliver highly accurate and secure mass calibration. The new XPR6U ultra-microcomparator offers a groundbreaking readability of 0.1 µg coupled with fast stabilisation time and improved repeatability, thanks to the increased stability provided by the Active Temperature Control technology which draws heat away from the weighing cell.
The MC Link software guides you through the calibration process, all the way to the printed certifi cate in just a few clicks, all the while ensuring fully traceable and secure data for weights, weight sets, uncertainty analyses and customers.
Once activated, the GWP Approved function built-in to the comparator monitors its status regarding tests, adjustments, levelling and settings so you know that everything is in order before you start calibration. It also ensures that mass comparison takes place within the safe weighing range of the comparator, and helps to guarantee valid results every time.
The enhanced weighing pan improves weight handling whilst the patented hook weighing pan simplifi es the handling of wire weights, either individually or in combination. The two terminal concept allows the main touchscreen to be placed wherever it is more ergonomic and convenient, whilst the smaller SmartView terminal is right where you need it with all the basic functions you need as you carry out your weighing tasks.
