"Our QC division uses the PCS for routine performance testing of pipettes. It yields results equivalent to the previously used gravimetric method. The documentation and NIST-traceable reagent qualification ensure GMP compliance."

    Need pipette training certification or pipette management consultation? Need on-site liquid handler performance assessment?

 

ARTEL products and services offer laboratories powerful tools to assess liquid handler performance. Employing these tools, users collect data which enables an understanding of liquid handling error from operators, 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 prerequisite for superior assay data
  • Robust liquid handling quality assurance ensures regulatory compliance

Therefore it is imperative for laboratories to:

  • 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
