Automated Aliquoting Liquid Handler Enhances Laboratory Efficiency

The second-generation platform enhances laboratory efficiency through workflow automation.

Introduced by Thermo Fisher Scientific (Waltham, MA, USA), the CV2000 provides convenience and safety with active opening and closing systems and locking guards that meet the US Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulations.

The CV2000 system is fully compatible with multiple rack formats and permits users to change the loading and dispensing routine to suit their needs. A unique tip preservation system allows the instrument to discharge used tips only, reducing waste while eliminating contamination. Capable of holding up to 300 samples and accommodating both 45 mL and 90 mL urine containers, the system can automate the process of aliquoting urine from primary samples to analyzer racks. In addition, the CV2000 system creates a batch report that is compatible with downstream analysis instrumentation, which is used to process the urine samples.

With its robotic arm and rotary height sensors, the CV2000 fits easily into automated workflows to boost sample throughput. The system is compatible with a wide variety of sample management software, but can also be used as a stand-alone instrument. It effectively manages samples to boost efficiency and productivity with zero cross-contamination.
