VIALAB Pipette Automation Software

Choose a predefined pipetting step, then adapt it to your needs. Select the correct volumes, source and target wells, then fine tune it by modifying pipetting speeds, heights, etc.

The software displays the liquid filling levels in each well to allow convenient adjustment of pipetting heights, and constantly validates your program in the background to avoid set-up errors.

The D-ONE single channel pipetting module’s liquid level detection feature eliminates the need for aspiration height adjustments. Worklist files can be imported for easy set-up of normalization or hit picking.

To support MAG modules and also COLDPLATE and BIOSHAKE, additional steps for magnet activation, temperature and shaking are available.

Perform a final check of your program by watching it run on the screen. This shows pipetting locations, volumes transferred, pipetting heights and the movement of tips on the deck.

You can even speed up the simulation, giving you a quick overview to ensure your program represents your application.

Upload your completed program directly to the pipette via the communication module or USB. After the transfer is complete, no connection between VIALAB and the pipette is needed. The pipette controls the ASSIST PLUS instrument!

You can also connect ASSIST PLUS to a PC, and run and control it directly using VIALAB, without using the pipette’s user interface.

Create a PDF report for your lab notebook or data filing, summarizing all labware, pipettes and pipetting steps in the program. Download a sample report here.

A run log is created when ASSIST PLUS is connected to a PC with VIALAB while the program is running for complete peace of mind. It documents the start and end time of each run, the serial number of the pipette and instrument, and records if any errors occurred during the run. If the D-ONE single channel pipetting module is used, it also reports if a liquid level was detected.
