true positive-displacement pipetting
Serial dilutions the mosquito way; low volume and high speed
mosquito is changing the way serial dilutions are done. The ability to aspirate from ultra low volumes of sample (dead volume as low as 0.2 µL), dispense and efficiently mix, makes it the perfect liquid handler for low volume serial dilutions. mosquito HV can rapidly and reliably prepare serial dilutions in the 1 - 10 µL range, and even stamp them out into multiple assay plates saving your precious stock solutions and time.
User-friendly and flexible; low volume pipetting at your fingertips
mosquito HV provides you with highly accurate and precise pipetting in the nL to µL range, picking up where traditional liquid handling falls down. mosquito HV is simple to use and allows you to reformat from any plate type or format to another, it can even access low profile microtubes, and hence eliminate the need for intermediate mother plates.
Bring the benefits of positive displacement pipetting into your lab
We're revolutionising liquid handling
Our liquid handling portfolio provides you with accurate and repeatable nanolitre to microlitre pipetting, every time, irrespective of liquid viscosity or environmental conditions.
Built for performance
Our liquid handling instruments use innovative technologies within products to provide
We produce robust, reliable and easy to use products that overcome difficult technical challenges so that you can focus on solving the scientific ones.
Pipetting technology
Each of our disposable micropipettes has its own individual piston, not an air gap or system liquid, offering true positive-displacement pipetting with no risk of cross-contamination.
Low-volume accuracy and precision
mosquito HV offers low volume pipetting in the 500 nL to 5 µL range, to a very high level of performance, suitable even for serial dilution.
- Outstanding accuracy: with an average of less than 3% error throughout the volume range
- Unrivalled precision: CVs of 3% (average across the volume range)

Intuitive by design
Our software is as focused on usability as it is on functionality. We strive for an intuitive user experience that matches the requirements of each scientific application. Through collaboration with scientists, our software team develop and enhance the instrument UI to provide the optimal user experience and facilitate adoption into novel application areas.
Versatile workflow integration
mosquito liquid handlers have been integrated with a wide variety of other laboratory instrumentation, including robotic plate handlers, stackers and bulk liquid handlers, to achieve walk-away operation in many application areas.
The mosquito Plate Processor (MoPP) is an off-the-shelf compact bench top workcell centred around mosquito. The integration system uses the popular PreciseFlex PF400 plate handling robot and Revolution scheduler allowing a variety of third party equipment to be integrated with any of our mosquito liquid handlers.
Featured applications
mosquito HV liquid handling robot can be used for miniaturising a wide range of applications that require accurate low volume pipetting without the risk of cross-contamination.
