Personal Lab 2

The Personal Lab 2 is a 2 micro-plate fully automated processor able to operate the dispense, incubation, reading, data processing and storage of results. Its user friendly approach for both software and hardware allows the operator to start working with the instrument as soon as it is out of the box, no pre-adjustments or calibrations required.
