Artel MVS - Multichannel Verification System
Simple volume verification with results in less than 10 minutes. Accelerate assay optimization with an easy to use approach. Simplify regulatory compliance and be ready for audits. Verify dispensed volume of virtually all automated liquid handlers and multichannel pipettes in minutes.
- Wide Volume Measurement
- Eliminates Need for Rigorous Environmental Conditions
- Simplified Verification and Calibration
- Results Traceable to SI
The MVS’s unique, dual-dye photometric measurements are robust against environmental influences and traceable to SI units to enable comparison across operators, protocols, equipment, and locations. Using the Calibrator Plate, Verification Plates, and an Artel-certified Plate Reader, the MVS ensures a continuous chain of traceability to national and international standards.
The MVS conforms to the Dual-Dye Ratiometric Photometric Method described in ISO 23783-2:2022, and the Ratiometric Photometric Method described in ISO/IWA 15:2015 for automated liquid handling systems. It can be used to fulfill test and calibration requirements of handheld multichannel pipettes according to ISO 8655-7:2022. The MVS can be used to fulfill test and calibration requirements of handheld or automated liquid handling systems according to CLSI QMS23:2019, ISO 17025:2017, cGMP, and cGLP. ArtelWare Software can be used in laboratories compliant to 21 CFR Part 11.
Optional Compliance Suite addon features:
- unique user account credentials ensure all actions are tracked with a full audit trail
- user groups with specific privileges can be established
- new plans and plan updates require approval and are given specific version numbers
- laboratory managers can set an electronic signature requirement at any step (for full compliance with the lab’s own quality system)
- each auditable action requires audit comments when complete, and audit data is saved in secure SQL databases which may be placed on a mapped server to ensure regular back-ups
Dispense solutions
Dispense the Artel QualAssure® solution and Diluent into a Verification Plate & mix. No need to prepare in-house dyes or generate standard curves.
Read the plate
The MVS measures absorbance values and generates precise volume measurements independently in each well of the Verification Plate. No weighing is involved and environmental controls are not required.
Verify and record performance
The software automatically calculates accuracy and precision for individual volume values, for each tip or channel and provides summary statistics by well, row, and column. Results are stored in ArtelWare, and reports are ready to print or export.
