The Master Science 96-Channel Liquid Handler is a benchtop automated pipetting workstation that aspirates and dispenses in all 96 channels at once. Work that takes many repeated strokes with an 8-channel pipette is done in a single move, more than 12 times faster.
Runs are set up and started from an external tablet. Basic pipetting, serial dilution and gradient dilution modes are built in, and the deck and pipetting head move automatically for hands-free operation.

Common Laboratory Problems and How This Workstation Helps
How the Master Science 96-Channel Liquid Handler improves high-throughput pipetting:
- Hours of repetitive pipetting: all 96 wells handled at once.
- Well-to-well variation: air displacement head with CV ≤ 2.0 %.
- Pipetting errors in dilution series: preset dilution programs.
- Repetitive strain injuries: automation removes manual strokes.
