Economic and Ergonomic Benefits of using Liquidator 96
With the increasing use of plate based assays and requirements for higher throughput, using a multichannel pipette can still have productivity and safety issues, such as the risk of Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI).
Compensation claims for RSI incurred at work are becoming increasingly common in the UK with the average liability to employers being in the region of £10,000.
The number of actions required when using Liquidator 96 to fill a plate compared to an 8 channel pipette are reduced 12 fold, thus minimising this liability.
Tip filling with traditional multichannel pipettes can be inconsistent. Such a repetitive task generates user fatigue and human error can lead to additional inaccuracies or even the risk of missing complete rows of wells.
This can lead to the necessity to repeat plates and the costly loss of reagents.
When labour costs, error risks and potential compensation claims are considered the use of Liquidator 96 brings significant financial savings as well as safety and performance advantages.
See the comparisons below that show how the initial investment in Liquidator 96 can bring down ongoing costs.
