Automating ELISA preparation
Automating ELISA preparation streamlines laboratory workflows by ensuring consistent results through precise liquid handling and standardized protocols. It increases efficiency by reducing hands-on time, allowing scientists to focus on higher-value tasks while the system runs independently.
Automation enhances robustness by minimizing human error and variability, leading to more reliable data. Additionally, it eliminates the need for overnight shifts, improving work-life balance and reducing operational costs. This approach accelerates throughput while maintaining high-quality outcomes, making it an invaluable tool for modern laboratories.

Best use cases for bringing in automation
Automation is a good fit for laboratories with regularly scheduled workflows, ensuring consistency and timely results.
Regular schedule
It excels in environments with high throughput needs, handling large sample volumes efficiently.
Hands-free automation
Labs where staff are responsible for tasks away from the bench benefit from automation by freeing up time for more critical activities.
Continuous operation
It is also ideal for facilities currently requiring off-hour staffing on weekends or holidays, as automated systems can operate 24/7, far beyond the capacity of a technician, reducing labor demands while maintaining productivity.
What to watch out for
Manual review and release of samples processed by the system may still be necessary, requiring oversight to maintain data integrity.
The increased data volume generated by automated workflows demands robust LIMS or ELN infrastructure to manage and store information effectively.
Higher throughput often leads to increased consumption of labware and tips, necessitating efficient waste management solutions to handle the larger volume.
