Product news

Hudson Robotics, Inc. introduces at LabAutomation 2010 the SOLO™ Plus combination pipettor and dispenser, which automates plate preparation without manual intervention or plate movement. The SOLO Plus combines Hudson's SOLO™ single-channel pipettor and the company's Micro10x high-speed 8-channel dispenser to create an automated, multi-position system that can simultaneously pipette unique compounds or concentrations into individual wells while dispensing reagents, buffer and other solutions across all wells.

Options include an extended arm to support additional microplate nest positions, including shaking, heating and cooling to support most assay protocols. SOLO Plus is controlled by Hudson's SoftLinx™ scheduling and SOLOSoft™ advanced pipetting software. "The SOLO Plus packs the power of more expensive liquid handling systems in a small-footprint benchtop version at a much lower cost," said Alan H. Katz, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer at Hudson Robotics.

SOLO Plus

Hudson Lab Automation

The SOLO Plus combines the best of our liquid handling solutions into one powerful product. It consists of the SOLO automatic single channel pipettor and the Micro10x multi-channel dispensor. The SOLO Plus is constructed so that the Micro10x has full access to one of the nests on the surface of the SOLO. This allows the user to accurately transfer small quantities of individual compounds and then quickly add common reagents and solvents. The SOLO Plus is perfect for carrying out serial dilutions. The SOLO adds the required amount of sample to the first column of each row. The Micro10x then adds solvent to the remaining columns and the SOLO then transfers a fixed amount of the mixture from column 1 to column2, mixes it, and then continues through the remaining columns
