Pipetting knowledge hub

General liquid handling

General liquid handling covers all pipetting, dispensing, and transferring of liquids in your lab workflows – from simple sample transfers to complex serial dilutions and reagent distributions.

About the general automated liquid handling workflow

Automated Liquid Handling comprises simple liquid transfer tasks in laboratory workflows. As such, they are the building blocks most protocols are built from. These range from simple liquid transfers such as aliquoting, reformatting, and plate filling, to more complex serial dilutions or normalization actions. While being the backbone of experiments in Life Sciences, they prevent researchers from doing higher-value work.

Challenges in general automated liquid handling

Managing repetitive, time-consuming manual tasks
Achieving consistent accuracy and precision, especially with small volumes or challenging liquids
Ensuring reproducibility across users and experiments
Quick and easy automation setup for simple general liquid handling tasks

How our automated liquid handlers help

Eppendorf’s epMotion systems automate routine liquid handling tasks, delivering unmatched accuracy and reproducibility. Our pipetting technology utilising optimised epTIPS Motion ensures reliable results for any workflow. This is backed up by the flexibility to use a broad range of plates, tubes, and adapters from a variety of vendors. To adapt to your changing needs, our software allows quick setup and adaption of protocols without extensive training. Automation eliminates user-to-user variability, reduces fatigue, and frees up your time for higher-value scientific work.
