The Modulus II Microplate Readers injector volume is in 5 µl increments. Do you have an injector with volumes down to 1 µl?
Our injector systems were designed and engineered with precision and accuracy in mind. The injector pumps used throughout the industry are at their most accurate and precise when set to inject 5 µl rather than 1 µl. Injection volume variations can affect assay results. In addition, we found that the majority of the assay protocols for injectors use volumes in increments of 5 µl (i.e. 10 µl or 50 µl or 100 µl). It is rare for assay protocols that require increments of 1 µl. If you have such a requirement, contact us with your specific needs.
