The Light One Illuminator is a compact, bench top pipetting aid for enhanced visualization of 96-well blocks. It requires no computer interface, has a small "foot print" on the bench and is easy to use. It reduces manual pipetting errors by illuminating the wells in which the analyst is pipetting into resulting in less analytical errors. It also has selective illumination for light-sensitive compounds. I use it in the lab for mass spectrometry sample analysis. Once the 96-well block is filled with standards, unknown, and blank samples the block can be placed directly into the mass spectrometer for analysis.

The Good

Reliable and great product.

The Bad

None

The Bottom Line

Many analytical methods have been automated using 96-well block technology. The problem is the wells are very close together and it is easy to pipet the sample into the same well twice - then the analysis is off by one sample throughout the sample run costing time and wasting solvents. The light one illuminator eliminates analyst error. I have been using it for all my analytics for over 5 years. I am very pleased with the performance of this product.
