Unlock the benefits of miniaturization with our most compact and accessible automated low-volume liquid handler
As the most compact and accessible member of the mosquito family, mosquito Gen3 brings the benefits of miniaturization to all. The instrument delivers highly accurate and precise multichannel pipetting down to 500 nL, across even the most challenging and viscous liquids thanks to its true positive displacement technology. Pre-sterilized individual micropipettes eliminate cross-contamination and rapid plate-to-plate pipetting motion and tip exchange maximize speed and efficiency.
Looking to maximize productivity? Partner mosquito Gen3 with our dragonfly® discovery non-contact dispenser and form the 'dynamic duo' - a proven combination for miniaturized NGS workflows.
mosquito Gen3 harnesses true positive displacement technology to deliver unparalleled accuracy even when working with the most challenging sample materials, from 500 nL - 5 µL.
You don't need to sacrifice premium lab space to realize the benefits of automation and miniaturization. mosquito Gen3 brings proven positive displacement technology in our smallest benchtop footprint, at less than 55 cm wide!
mosquito Gen3 bring the benefits of miniaturization to all. Running reactions at a fraction of the volume maximizes research output and extends the use of precious reagents and samples, transforming NGS and PCR workflows.
Program mosquito to your required protocols with capabilities for aspirating, dispensing, and mixing. Seamless integration with robotic plate handlers, stackers and bulk liquid dispensers further extends mosquito's capabilities and streamlines workflows.
Individual disposable pre-sterilized pipettes remove any risk of cross-contamination, ensuring data integrity and accurate research outcomes.
Accessories including cooling blocks, magnetic blocks and environmental protection, along with software wizards for many common protocols provides quick access to a wide range of applications. Intuitive application-led software combines functionality with usability to facilitate adoption into novel areas.
