Product news

To guarantee the quality of milk, a lot of tests are performed, for example, testing for brucellosis, leucosis or antibiotic residues. Using the LISSY up to one thousand samples per dairy can be processed quickly, precisely and reproducibly. The raw samples can be placed in their original sample containers directly on the platform. From there an aliquot is taken and transferred to a microtiter plate. Then standards and controls are easily added depending on the test protocol. Finally the plate is analysed in the integrated reader.

Barcode labelling of the bottles and milk boxes guarantee full sample control and traceability.

Methods can be adapted readily to the daily number of samples using the flexible software WinLISSY. Different sample amounts from different dairies can also all be processed in one run.

MicroplatesMicroplates are multi-well plates used to increase the throughput of biological investigations. The number of wells microplates contain can range from 6 to 3243 wells, with the 96-well format being the most commonly used. Microplates can come tailored for a range of applications including cell culture, PCR, filtration, storage, non-binding surface, protein crystallization, as well as pre-coated, deep well and normal Standard microplates. Additionally, options for microplate colors include clear , black, white or black with clear bottom and white with clear bottom for absorbance microplate reader applications.
