Microliter, nanoliter or picoliter dispensing: small can be really BIG
Evolution-proof: good reasons for being small. Sure, microliters, nanoliters and picoliters all sound small. But just like an elephant, a koala, and a Etruscan shrew (the smallest mammal in the world), evolution has shown that even small ones can be giants, too! Precision microdispensing deals in these tiny volumes, where even a small difference can […]
Miniaturizing ELISA: How Precision Microdispensing Enables High-Sensitivity, Low-Volume Assays
Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISAs) have long been the benchmark for detecting analytes in clinical and research settings. While effective, traditional ELISAs are resource-intensive, time-consuming to perform, and ill-suited for high-throughput, multiplex applications. As scientific workflows demand faster and more cost-efficient solutions, it is clear that the classic format needs a modern upgrade. Miniaturized ELISAs offer […]
Precision Liquid Dispensing: The Key to Faster, Scalable Diagnostic Development
The need for rapid, reliable, and scalable diagnostic tests has never been greater, whether it’s for addressing challenges with SARS-CoV-2 infections or detecting sexually transmitted diseases like HIV and other pathogens. To meet these needs, manufacturers are turning to precision liquid microdispensing technology, which enables miniaturization of multiplex assays, exceptional accuracy, and scalable high-throughput production. This innovation […]
How Picoliter Dispensing is Transforming Scientific Research and Innovation
In modern research, precision is everything. As scientists push the boundaries of innovation, picoliter dispensing has become an important tool, enabling ultra-miniaturized assays, reducing reagent waste, and enhancing experimental accuracy. Whether in biotech, diagnostics, or materials science, this technology brings speed without compromising quality and savings without reducing research output. From high-density biochips to biosensors, Microdispensing is enhancing workflows […]
Accelerating Progress in Breast Cancer Diagnostics using Precision Microdispensing
Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent and concerning diseases affecting women worldwide. A lot of ongoing research focuses on the development of breast cancer diagnostics to identify and characterize breast tumors, enabling healthcare professionals to determine the stage and type of cancer, as well as to guide treatment decisions. In this blog post, […]
Microneedles – tiny devices with huge potential in drug delivery and POC diagnostics
Microneedles have the potential to revolutionize the healthcare industry in drug delivery and diagnostics. These microscopic needles, too small to be seen by the naked eye, have been designed to deliver drugs through the skin without causing pain. Compared to traditional methods like injections or oral medication, microneedles offer a range of benefits. They are […]
Parallel detection and differentiation of respiratory viruses
The COVID-19 outbreak created urgency for innovative diagnostic technologies. The triple-demic of COVID-19, RSV and influenza brought new challenges. The “tripledemic” is not an official scientific term but it refers to the co-occurrence of RSV (respiratory syncytial virus), flu, and COVID-19 to the extent that it could overwhelm national healthcare systems. According to data from […]
