(Artel: Westbrook, ME) -- Artel, a global leader in liquid-handling quality assurance, recently launched version 3.3 of its Pipette Tracker software. Tightly integrated with the Artel PCS (pipette calibration system), Pipette Tracker provides a total management system for quality control of any pipette population.

The updated software brings even more convenience to laboratories by e-mailing quality control managers and laboratory technicians when pipettes are due for calibration or preventive maintenance. The updated Pipette Tracker software provides more tools to analyze pipette calibration and maintenance records, making it easy to identify poor performance trends early on. The software allows laboratories to set action limits, which will alert users when a pipette is nearing its individual performance specifications, allowing preventive maintenance to be performed before pipette failure occurs.
