Automate your multichannel pipettes!
Multichannel pipettes are invaluable when working with multiwell plates. However, prolonged and repetitive pipetting sessions bear the risk of strain and fatigue, often resulting in repetitive strain injuries (RSI) and less reproducible results.
ASSIST together with INTEGRA’s VIAFLO electronic pipettes form the perfect symbiosis to prevent users from RSI and to significantly increase the reproducibility of prolonged pipetting protocols such as serial dilutions, plate filling and reagent addition.
By mounting a VIAFLO electronic pipette on the ASSIST, the pipette’s protocols can be carried out fully automatically.

Smart pipette adapter
Any VIAFLO multichannel pipette can be mounted to the smart pipette adapter. Pipettes are available as 8-, 12-, and 16-channel models, covering a volume range of 0.5 -1250 µl. |
|
Bluetooth communication
The pipette and ASSIST are connected via Bluetooth, supporting convenient wireless connectivity. |

Plate compatibility
Use 6-well to 384-well plates in either landscape or portrait orientation. |
|
Compact size
The instrument’s footprint is small and it is light weight. This makes it easy to relocate it anytime and use it in a laminar flow cabinet. |

Choice of reservoirs
Accommodates reagent reservoirs of three different volumes: 10 ml, 25 ml and 100 ml. |
Improved ergonomics
No matter how light and well balanced a pipette is, prolonged pipetting tasks remain physically and mentally challenging. While some steps always need to be performed manually, many other steps can be automated. To prevent RSI caused by extensive repetitive motions, manual pipetting should be minimized. ASSIST lets you switch between the manual and automated pipetting tasks on the fly, relieving you of much of the pipetting burden. |

Consistent pipetting
The benefits of automating a pipetting procedure are manifold. Next to optimizing ergonomics, it increases the reproducibility of pipetting. The major source of problems in pipetting performance are human errors. Typical parameters influencing the performance are tip immersion depth and pipetting angle. The automated pipetting capability of ASSIST ensures these parameters are always the same, resulting in an increased reproducibility. Also, ASSIST makes no pipetting mistakes!
