Transform Your Research With the Echo Acoustic Liquid Handler

Precise & Reproducible

Accurately and reliably transfers a wide range of fluids using ADE* and DFA* technologies. Allows for precise, contact-free acoustic transfers in volumes as small as 2.5 nL. The Echo 650 Series can lower assay replicate requirements through increased assay precision.

Fast & Efficient

Allows for fast any-well-to-any-well transfers, enabling previously hours-long DNA/RNA normalization, barcoding, and pooling of libraries down to minutes-scale. This makes it an effective tool for optimizing your workflow.


Sustainable and Cost-Reducing

Decreases plasticware costs by 75% per year through reduced reaction volumes and dramatically reduced dependency on single-use plastic pipette tips. Lower your plastic waste and reduce your carbon footprint!

Echo® Qualified 384-Well COC Microplate
Reference : BEC-001-12782

Echo® Qualified 384-Well COC Microplate, Low Dead Volume, Clear, Flat Bottom, Non-sterile, 50 plates/case


Echo® Qualified 384-Well Low Dead Volume (LDV) Source Microplates are designed to minimize dead volume when using the Echo® Liquid Handler. 

This microplate is constructed of Cyclic Olefin Copolymer (COC) for optimal acoustic transfer performance and DMSO storage. Each lot of microplates is tested and certified to meet stringent performance specifications.

Additional benefits of the microplate include:
- compatibility with heat sealing devices, 
- designed for barcode customization 
- and optimized for robotic handling. 
- Precise Manufacturing for Superior Results.

For best results, Echo Liquid Handlers are designed to use Echo Qualified 384-well and 1536-well Source Microplates for precise and accurate liquid transfer. Echo Qualified Microplates deliver the best possible results in compound storage and miniaturized assays, and each plate is insured to meet the specifications required for consistent acoustic transfers. Labcyte performs functional qualification tests on each microplate lot with an Echo Liquid Handler to verify that our microplates deliver superior precision and accuracy, and DMSO hydration measurements.
