Digital Dispenser Now Offers Aqueous Liquid Dispensing

The HP D300 Digital Dispenser – available from Tecan – now allows customers to titrate low volumes of biomolecules in aqueous solutions, offering greater flexibility for drug discovery workflows. Users can choose between dispensing DMSO, for small molecule studies, and aqueous solutions in combination with a surfactant, for the investigation of proteins, antibodies, enzymes and nucleic acids.

Newly launched T8+ and D4+ Dispenseheads, combined with updated software, allow both new and existing customers to benefit from this breakthrough, offering straightforward set-up of dose-response curves and synergy studies. New ‘fluid class’ options allow users to optimize liquid dispensing performance to their specific buffers and surfactants, and an Enzyme Profile function enables fast and easy set-up of titrations using differing combinations of enzymes, substrates and other compounds. These innovative features, combined with the system’s proven low volume dispensing performance, make it easy to perform complex experiments – such as enzyme characterization, K_m determination and exploring the effects of enzyme inhibitors – ensuring a comprehensive solution for drug discovery applications.
