Extremely Low Dead Volumes
To minimize dead volume, the ingredient plugs directly into the microfluidic chip. Dead
volumes can be reduced to 6 µL by using pipette tips as ingredient reservoirs. This feature
is ideal for dispensing even the most precious samples.
Optional Chip Changer
MANTIS can automatically dispense up to six reagents, allowing you to dispense complex
plates and assay development experiments.
Small Footprint
They say good things come in small packages, and the MANTIS is no different. The
MANTIS is the smallest liquid handling robot made by FORMULATRIX and boasts one of
the smallest footprints on the market.
With a base that fits on a standard mouse pad, the MANTIS can fit in nearly any workspace
while remaining robot accessible for automation.
Continuous Flow Dispensing (optional)
With optional continuous flow, the MANTIS can pressurize an external bottle to dispense
liquids at a constant dispense speed. This dispensing method allows for filling seven times
faster (at a rate of 150 µL/second) than the previous MANTIS. This increased dispensing
speed is suitable for filling deep well blocks.
