Rapid transfer of small volumes of serum into microplates.
A method has been devised to transfer small volumes of serum, as an adjunct to larger volume sampling, into microplates. The Costar Transplate 96 machine is used routinely in our laboratory for transferring serum samples into reaction wells for anti-HIV screening. Using this additional method a mean of 4 microliters of serum was transferred, within acceptable limits of error (coefficient of variation, c.v., 16%).
