BECAUSE You HAve come too far to waste your time on repetitive lab work

Preparing multiple samples by hand and measuring them manually is grueling, hard work. As experimental design grows more complex, and the demands on high precision increase, this becomes ever more time consuming and every accident or disruption could set you back hours.

Never lose another crucial data point

When measuring manually, it can be a real struggle to hit the most important points in your time- or concentration span. Can you really afford to keep letting critical details slip through your fingers?

Escape the frustrations of hand pipetting

Have you ever come to the end of a complex pipetting series, just to realize that something went wrong along the way? Is the only answer really to start over, over and over again?

Reclaim your precious lab space

Typical lab instruments can be cyclopean beasts, forcing you to dedicate a lot of laboratory space to just a single function. Are you going to let this invasion continue?

How does it work?

Your Labbot Experiment in Three Steps

Design and prepare your experiment. Let Labbot run it. Analyze the data. Repeat. It is as easy as that.

Design

Design your experiment using the Labbot control software, prepare your starting sample in a standard cuvette and load your titrant into the pump.

Run

Now all you have to do is to press ‘Go’ and Labbot will execute your instructions, collecting and storing data along the way.

Analyze

With your experiment completed the data can be loaded into the Viewer software, which gives you a lot of powerful options to visualize and analyze your data.

Measurement

Fluorescence

Detection range: 290-840 nm

With a wide selection of excitation light filters, Labbot can cover the entire UV-vis range, providing full flexibility in your choice of chromophores.

Measurement

Absorbance

Range: 225-770 nm

Measure concentrations with high accuracy, characterise nanoparticles, or follow shifts in the absorbance spectrum as you modify your sample.

Measurement

Light Scattering

Red laser at 90°

Follow aggregation, phase transitions, and formation or dissolution of particles.  As new species or aggregates form, you can monitor the process in real-time.

Measurement

pH/Conductivity

Real-time feedback

External

Connect an external pH or conductivity meter to monitor your sample's state in real-time, and provide smart feedback during your titration.

Sample Control

Automatic Titrations

20 nl Resolution

With the automated precision pump, you can titrate in ligands, salts, acid or base, or whatever solvent your experiment require.

Sample Control

Temperature Control

6-85 °C range

Keep the temperature steady or perform a well-defined temperature titration with high-precision temperature control.

Sample Control

Adjustable
Mixing

adjustable speed

Magnetic stirrer with adjustable speed to accelerate temperature equilibration and to ensure rapid mixing during titrations.

“One of the best features is that we can track the reaction with multiple read­outs from the same sample. It really gives a few extra layers of insights.”
