Automated Particle Analysis of Viscous Samples with MFI and the Bot1 Autosampler

This application note discusses the successful application of the MFI 5200 System with the Bot1 Autosampler for analyzing highly viscous samples, showcasing consistent and precise results across a range of viscosities.

Key Points

• The Bot1 Autosampler facilitates automated batch protocols that ensure thorough cleaning of the flow cell and accurate analysis of viscous samples.
• The system demonstrates robust performance with intra-assay precision, accurate bead concentration measurements, and consistent results for both aqueous and viscous samples.
• Following best practices for handling viscous samples, such as proper pump calibration and gentle mixing, enables users to achieve reliable and sensitive particle analysis without the need for sample dilution.
