Products and Services

ARTEL offers products and services to verify the accuracy and precision of liquid handling equipment so that you can ensure superior assay results.

Calibration and Volume Verification Systems Need a fast, easy, accurate, and standardized way to calibrate and verify your liquid handling devices?	Training and Services Need pipetting training, certification, or pipette management consultation? Need on-site liquid handler performance assessment?	Pipette Calibration and Management Software Need a way to organize pipettes, and schedule, record, and print, calibration information?

ARTEL products and services are powerful tools for performance assessment of liquid handling devices. Employing these tools, users collect data that enable an understanding of liquid handling error, caused by operators, the environment, pipettes, and automated liquid handlers.  With that knowledge, laboratories are equipped to develop procedures, engage in timely maintenance activities, and train operators as needed to ensure data integrity and regulatory compliance.

Why is liquid handling quality assurance important? 

• Knowing exact volume dispensed allows accurate determination of true concentrations of all solutions
• Incorrect concentrations can cause assay results to be falsely interpreted
• Superior liquid handling is a prerequisite for superior assay data
• Robust liquid handling quality assurance ensures regulatory compliance

Therefore it is imperative that laboratories:

• Calibrate, verify, and/or validate the volume-dispensing performance of pipettes and automated liquid handlers
• Design liquid handling protocols to optimize assay results
• Train operators in proper methods for liquid handling
• Assess operator competency for pipetting proficiency
