Modern and innovative solutions from Dispendix
View the modern solutions of Dispendix on this page. Dispendix is a manufacturer that makes next-generation liquid handling solutions. The showpiece is a high-precision automatic dosing machine, which can dose liquids into microplates in nanoliters, within a very short time frame. This makes the I.DOT suitable for many aspects of life science.
Not only is the device progressive in terms of results, the operation and overall form factor is also liquid handling in 2023. On a large touch screen on the front of the unit (which can also be operated with a mouse) you can configure every possible setting through clear and well-arranged software. The device functions quickly and is pleasant to look at thanks to its modern design.
Other benefits
The dosing by the I.DOT takes place in a closed environment, which prevents (cross) contamination. Human errors are eliminated, repetitive strain injuries are prevented and the use of plastic is reduced. This is because you can save on using pipette tips. Dispendix’s I.DOT enables you to work with a precision and intuitiveness you’ve never experienced before.
The patented ‘drop-detection’ technology allows you to be exactly aware of your dosages, because the device measures exactly how many drops of a certain size have been dosed. This makes the I.DOT suitable for tasks such as compound dispensing, assay development, genomics and proteomics and cell dispensing. The droplets in the size of nanoliters enable operations in the environment of gene editing (sequencing).
Dispensing plates
The I.DOT uses dispensing plates to achieve the correct droplet size. These polypropylene plates in 96 or 384 well format are suitable for volumes from 8 to 80,000 nL, and some even 4 nL. Each plate has a dead volume of less than 1 microliter. One of the strengths of the dispensing plates is the dosing of living cells. However, dosing of numerous other solutions is possible, including aqueous solutions containing salts and other ingredients, reagents used for qPCR assays, DMSO up to 100%, Matrigel and many other liquids commonly used in laboratories. The dosing plates are also suitable for solvents such as methanol and acetonitrile.
