Pipettiersystem mit passiver Flussregelung und Sensorik zur Erfassung von Eigenschaften der Flüssigkeit und des Systemzustands - PiFPaF II

Short description (English)

Pipetting system with passive flow control and sensors for monitoring of liquid properties and state of the system

Abstract (German)

In time-pressure based dispensing systems, the actual amount of liquid aspirated and dispensed is strongly influenced by the viscosity of the liquid and the geometry of the dispensing-nozzle. Within this project a demonstrator will be realized capable of overcoming these shortcomings by the introduction of a microelement and sensors into the gas pipetting path and additionally capable of perceiving pipetting conditions and fluid properties.
