Recommend this product to all the labs that do assay development, HTS, and HCS.
Assay Development/HTS
ECHO 555 is a liquid handler, it transfer solution at nl (minimum 2.5 nl). It's very accurate, easy to use, and safe us a lot of time. I highly recommend this product to all the labs that do assay development, HTS, and HCS.

Best instrument for compound delivery with the best support in the business
Compound delivery
The Labcyte Echo is the absolute best way to deliver compounds to assay plates. I have tested many other technologies side-by-side and the Labcyte has the best accuracy and precision. The application engineers are knowledgeable and helpful and the service engineers are competent. We always get service on our instruments within a day of request.

Very easy to use, save you a lot of time.
Assay development, HTS
The ECHO is so powerful, it has the ability to transfer a small volume, minimum 2.5 nl. You can stamp compounds from the source plate to the destination plate, or transfer different volume as you desire using different programs: Cherry Pick, or Plate Reformat, or Dose Response. The software also generates a report so you can transfer the report to a statistic program for your data analysis.

Echo® 555 liquid handler - the world's fastest acoustic dispensing platform for life science applications.
The Echo® 555 liquid handler is the world’s fastest acoustic liquid handling platform for life science applications. Laboratories that demand very high throughput rely upon the Echo 555 liquid handler for round-the-clock trouble-free operation to enable the fastest discovery.
The Echo 555 doubles the throughput of the Echo 550 and provides transfers from as many as 660,000 wells per day. Like the Echo 520 and Echo 550 liquid handlers, the Echo 555 uses "touchless" ADE transfer technology. ADE uses sound energy to transfer 2.5 nL droplets from Echo-qualified 384- and 1536-well source plates into 96-, 384-, 1536- and 3456-well destination plates.
This unique touchless technology eliminates consumable tip costs, washing, and cross-contamination. Unsurpassed volumetric precision (≤ 8% CV) and accuracy (≤ 10% CV) ensure superior results. Independent studies have shown that Echo liquid handlers eliminate false negatives due to sample loss on tip surfaces in low-concentration transfers. Like the Echo 550 liquid handler, the Echo 555 liquid handler reports both fluid volume and DMSO hydration.
Echo® 555 Liquid Handler Features:
- Tipless transfer, resulting in dramatic cost savings
- Accurate, precise movement of nanoliter-scale quantities, enabling assay miniaturization and further reducing costs
- Elimination of cross-contamination, carryover or leachates
- Better results through direct dilution of compounds, an improvement over serial dilution methods
- Improved information about sample integrity and improved transfer quality through measurement of DMSO hydration level
Applications:
- Compound management
- Compound screening
- siRNA screening
- Biochemical assays
- Cell-based assays
- PCR
- Genotyping
- Gene expression
