error resulting in more accurate data
with less variations.
“Did I already mix well D-6 on my second
microplate?” The answer to that question and
the ensuing course of action will determine
the result. Andrew eliminates human variation
and fatigue, one of the principal causes for
experimental variations. Using the same pipettor
and tips that you are using today and have
trusted for years, Andrew can perform your
experiment from beginning to end, unattended.
