WAVE GUIDE WITH ISOLATED COUPLING INTERFACE

摘要

Disclosed is an apparatus for high-throughput non-contact liquid transfer. The high-throughput non-contact liquid transfer apparatus may be implemented for high-throughput biological, chemical and biochemical, synthesis and/or screening. In one variation, the apparatus comprise of an acoustic emitter, one or more X/Y linear stage with associated handling device, one or more storage queue, and an image detection system. The apparatus may be controlled by a centralized system controller with associated electronic and/or software. The apparatus may further be integrated within a frame with environment and safety enclosure. The system controller may control positioning of source vessel and target device relative to an acoustic emitter device. The system controller may also track the location of all the source well plates and target well plates, thus providing for user-defined association of any well on any source well plate with any well on any target well plate for liquid transfer.
