(Artel: Westbrook, ME) -- Artel, manufacturer of precise systems for ensuring data integrity in any laboratory process requiring liquid handling, is introducing two new applications that use the Artel Multichannel Verification System (MVS) to verify key steps in the assay workflow that are critical to gaining reliable results.

One of the new applications employs the MVS to ensure complete mixing of solutions in microtiter plates, which is critical for assay effectiveness and repeatability, especially when assays require further dilutions of mixed samples. Liquids dispensed into microtiter plates are often assumed to have been mixed thoroughly through simple diffusion, multiple aspirate and dispense cycles with a liquid handler, or after a cursory shaking of the plate. The application note highlights how inefficient these methods can be and provides scientists with a methodology to measure and optimize the efficiency of the liquid mixing techniques they employ in their laboratories to give them greater confidence in their assay results.
