PerkinElmer Life and Analytical Sciences of Boston has launched Piezorray, a new non-contact microarrayer. The instrument can pipette into and aspirate out of a number of standard plate formats and dispense to a variety of non-porous and 3D substrates, such as PerkinElmer’s Hydrogel, to create DNA or protein microarrays. It features software with a Windows XP-based graphical user interface similar to PerkinElmer’s SpotArray and ScanArray technologies. The instrument has four PiezoTip dispensers and a flexible deck layout that allows for one source-plate holder.
