High performance at a fraction of the cost
The SPT Labtech mosquito offers unique nanolitre liquid handling technology enabling you to perform ‘traditional’ liquid handling tasks at a fraction of the volume, and at higher speeds. The instrument uses positive displacement, disposable micropipettes to handle low volumes of liquid in plate to plate, or intra plate transfers using contact dispensing. Each mosquito’s disposable micropipette has its own piston, not an air gap or system liquid, for true positive displacement pipetting.
Streamline drug discovery with miniaturized, automated workflows
SPT Labtech mosquito LV system helps researchers to accelerate drug discovery and maximize research output by automating complex liquid handling tasks at low volumes. This reduces sample, reagent, and plastic waste, and increases assay robustness.
Mosquito LV
Highly accurate and precise multichannel pipetting - saving precious time and reagent to enhance drug discovery workflows. Mosquito LV simplifies assay miniaturization within automated, high throughput settings. The easy to use instrument enables researchers to benefit from the significant time and reagent savings of minimal dead volumes (under 0.3 μL) and maximize return on research investment.
Simplify low volume workflows in high throughput settings
mosquito LV offers highly accurate and precise multichannel pipetting from 25 nL to 1.2 µL and simplifies assay miniaturization and compound handling workflows with automated, high throughput operation.
Low volume, high speed serial dilutions minimize waste and maximize throughput
mosquito LV is the perfect liquid handler for low volume serial dilutions, minimizing waste and maximizing throughput. Using less than 2 µL of the precious stock compound, mosquito LV prepares a full dilution curve and dispenses it into multiple assay plates in minutes. With the ability to aspirate, dispense and even mix in any SBS plate type or format, mosquito offers exceptional versatility even at low volume across screening applications.
Rapid plate reformatting and replication increases efficiency
mosquito LV enables easy and accurate reformatting between 96-, 384- and 1,536-well microplates. By replicating multiple mother plates directly into low-volume assay ready plates within 1.5 minutes per plate, the instrument reduces the burden of traditionally time-consuming processes.
Create acoustic-ready plates to complement acoustic screening workflows
mosquito LV complements and enhances acoustic screening workflows by rapidly creating acoustic-ready semi-direct or serial dilution plates through rapid pipetting of high nL volumes with no plate inversion.
True positive displacement pipetting delivers exceptional accuracy
mosquito LV harnesses innovative positive displacement pipetting by using disposable micropipettes with individual pistons to deliver exceptional accuracy and precision, irrespective of liquid class.
Disposable pipettes ensure assay integrity
Disposable pipettes guard against cross-contamination and assure the integrity of your assays and the quality of your research outcomes.
Walk up and use technology streamlines user experience
The user-friendly instrument and software interface are accessible for even novice users, minimizing operator training time and simplifying setup.
