The Fluent Mix and Pierce Workstation automates tedious, error prone manual tasks for whole blood pipetting applications, providing consistent sample mixing and excellent pipetting performance to standardize your results.
The Fluent Mix and Pierce Workstation offers tube-to-tube and tube-to-plate distribution of samples that require thorough mixing, while eliminating the need to decap and recap tubes for sample distribution. The compact, modular design enables the setup to be modified to account for increased demand over time, while the flexible configuration supports different applications to be run on a single platform. This automation of sample mixing and tube piercing, combined with excellent pipetting performance for challenging sample types, provides the necessary result standardization needed for multiple applications, such as serology and liquid chromatography mass spectrometry in the clinical space.
Key advantages:
- Automated 360° tube rotation or oscillation for 120 tubes per Tube Rotator module and 480 tubes per run for consistent blood sampling.
- Piercing, instead of decapping and recapping of tubes, reduces labor, risk of infection and cross-contamination.
- Excellent pipetting performance for complex sample types, verified for whole blood samples.
- Increased confidence in results with verified pipetting performance using capacitive liquid level detection before and after pipetting.
- Flexible throughput increase based on your demand by adding Tube Rotator units to process up to 2300* samples per shift.
- For clinical users designed for general purpose use in clinical laboratories.

Harnessing the power of LC-MS in medical research and diagnostics
In this whitepaper, Tecan outlines the role of LC-MS in medical research and clinical diagnostics. Discover how you can implement a workflow aligned with your lab’s setup, with applications including the detection of vitamins, immunosuppressants, and psychotropic drugs. Real-world case studies show practical steps for adopting LC-MS into routine use. You will also find answers to common workflow and reagent handling questions.
The paper also introduces concentrated LC-MS kits, offering the equivalent analytical performance as standard kits, while reducing shipping weight, solvent volumes, and storage space. Learn how modular formats support focused procurement and lower overall lab costs.
Fluent Mix and Pierce Workstation
In this application note, Tecan demonstrates how the Fluent Mix and Pierce Workstation provides automation for sample distribution without the need for tube decapping, therefore eliminating tedious manual work and the risk of technical or human errors.
