ARTEL has released a new laboratory innovation to improve the performance of automated liquid handlers. The new MVS™ ADVANCED verifies multichannel instrumentation using non-aqueous test solutions, such as DMSO. The MVS ADVANCED enhances data integrity and allows laboratories to optimize automated liquid-handling equipment with up to 384 channels. User-intuitive and portable, this precision-measurement system can be used on the benchtop to provide accurate and precise volumetric measurements in minutes, strengthening confidence in laboratory data. The MVS ADVANCED can optimize automated liquid-handling instrumentation with test solutions with the same viscosity as solutions used in actual assays. The system can also be used with standard microtiter plates and is easily integrated with existing automated liquid handlers. Frequent checks are possible, because the system’s verification process is completed in less than 10 minutes. This results in greater ensurance of data integrity. Also, the MVS ADVANCED provides traceable data, facilitating regulatory compliance. To help customers customize the MVS ADVANCED and integrate it into existing operations, ARTEL will include value-added services, providing on-site installation, training, and application support services. This includes helping laboratories to program system software for specific error tolerances so that equipment operating out of specification can be immediately flagged and adjusted.
