FAQs and Resources
What are pipetting stations?
Pipetting stations are benchtop liquid handling systems that allow a user to pipette into 96- and 384-well plates with far fewer steps and greater accuracy than when using single, 8- and 12 multichannel pipettes.
Pipetting stations range from manual and semi-automated to fully automated liquid handling options. In general, manual and semi-automated stations are more appropriate for research labs, while fully-automated liquid handling systems are more common in production environments. As a general rule, labs that prepare more than five plates a day will benefit from a pipetting station.
