An Ivy League university’s immunology research group uses INTEGRA Biosciences’ VIAFLO 96 and VIAFLO 384 handheld electronic pipettes to streamline its ELISA workflow. These compact and convenient 96- and 384-channel pipetting solutions make it easy to perform the many repetitive steps required for these immunoassays, improving consistency and saving time.
This group performs many ELISAs every day. This means that the time savings achieved using VIAFLO 96 and VIAFLO 384 essentially add up. A PhD student in the group explained: “It is impossible to manually pipette the number of samples required for all ELISAs in a day. We use the VIAFLO 96 and VIAFLO 384 to perform key assay steps. We have been using the INTEGRA and have recently started using the programmable automatic settings to perform these tasks even more quickly and accurately. Also, the repeat dispense mode is very useful when performing protein purification and dispensing, as it cuts the time in half, allowing us to perform other tasks in less time. We use many other INTEGRA products, including controllers. INTEGRA personnel also visited our lab multiple times for maintenance on the VIAFLO 96 and VIAFLO 384, saving us time!”
