Chemical and biological reagents can be dispensed using the proprietary BioJet technology. BioJet Elite couples the XYZ motion control system with the high precision displacement capabilities of a syringe pump and the high-speed actuation of a micro-solenoid valve. The three components synchronized together result in precise, non-contact liquid handling system.
