Welcome to F.A.S.T. Help

The F.A.S.T. instrument enables you to easily transfer liquid rapidly by using a unique robotic hand that holds up to 96 positive-displacement tips. The tips allow you to aspirate and dispense accurately, with high precision volumes with a maximum capacity of 13 μL and as low as 0.1 μL into the 96-well and 384-well plates.

 

You can run six tasks in the F.A.S.T. software or combine all of these modes:

  • Simple Transfer Task: Plate Copy Task and Cherry Picking Task
  • Picklist
  • Serial Dilution Task
  • Concentration Normalization
  • Broadcasting
  • Pooling

 

The goal of this help file is to provide you with everything you need to know in order to get the most out of F.A.S.T. If you have suggestions on how we can better reach this goal, please let us know.
