App Note: Improving Accuracy Serial Dilutions Using the Electronic Pipette

Serial dilutions are an essential component of dose response curves in drug discovery, limit testing, standard curves for qPCR based assays, and calibration curves in diverse assays. Accuracy in serial dilutions is an important factor that can significantly impact results. In this study, we investigated the use of electronic pipettes for the preparation of serial dilutions. The results demonstrate that use of electronic pipette for serial dilution gives better accuracy in sample concentrations and has reduced error.
