The Robbins Scientific Hydra 96 Microdispenser, CAT# 1029-41-1, with 290ul Syringe, is a bench-top instrument providing high-speed, repetitive dispensing of micro liter and nano liter volumes into microplates, 96 samples at a time. The Hydra microdispenser features 96 glass syringes held in a fixed array. The array forms a horizontal X-Y grid that aligns each needle in the exact center of a well in a microplate. A precision motor assembly moves the plungers within the syringes up and down under microprocessor control, dispensing or aspirating liquids to or from microplates and other receptacles.
