TTP LabTech LCP liquid handler
04 August, 2010 | Millennium Science Pty Ltd
TTP LabTech’s mosquito LCP liquid handler is a dedicated device that has been designed to facilitate the crystallisation of membrane proteins, such as G-protein coupled receptors, by offering a fully automated solution to lipid cubic phase (LCP) screening. It incorporates an auto-homing positive displacement syringe for the accurate and repeatable dispensing of LCP in addition to the standard disposable, positive displacement mosquito tips that are claimed to eliminate zero cross-contamination. This novel automation system enables LCP screening to be performed accurately and with ease and increases the throughput of crystallisation set-ups.

Eppendorf Xplorer pipette
04 August, 2010 | Eppendorf South Pacific Pty Ltd
Precision, accuracy and ergonomic handling are standard features of the Xplorer pipette. In pipetting, if a significant amount of muscle strain is used, long-term, repetitive-stress injuries can occur. This is especially true for longer pipetting series. With an electronic piston stroke, low weight and intuitive user guidance, electronic pipettes like the Xplorer minimise user strain. The perfect balance and the finger rest ensure a position that is particularly easy on the joints.
