Echo 650T® LIQUID HANDLER, Labcyte (CAT#: AM-AUTO-0170-LY)

The Echo 650T® LIQUID HANDLER is manufactured by Labcyte. It supports sample transfer directly from Echo Qualified sample tubes, enabling a fully non-contact liquid handling workflow from sample storage all the way to assay ready plates. Capable of transferring as little as 2.5 nL from 384-well and 1536-well microplates, and now, from sample tubes arrayed in a 96-tube format, the Echo 650T meets the needs of a wide variety of molecular and cellular assays.

Drop volume: 2.5 nL
Volume transfer range: 2.5 nL – 5 µL (dependent on fluid type, assay, and source plate used)
Reagents supported: DMSO, PCR and qPCR reagents, synthetic biology reagents, NGS reagents, primers and probes, cell culture media, proteins, nucleic acids, up to 50% glycerol, serum, plasma, antibodies, enzymes, and protein crystallography reagents
