DORNIER LabTech Systems takes PIRO® personal pipetting to Russia

Lindau, Germany: – Laboratory engineering specialist DORNIER LabTech Systems will show its ground-breaking PIRO® automated pipetting small robot at its debut appearance as exhibitor at September’s Russian Joint Life Sciences Forum in Moscow.

DORNIER LabTech Systems will occupy Stand 9 of the exhibition area at the Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow.

Here, a team led by DORNIER LabTech Systems Head of Application Support, Dr. Rudolf Walser, and Director Sales Russia, Anna Zakharova, will conduct live demonstration of the personal pipetting robot.

Advanced personal pipetting

“This event really marks our introduction of the revolutionary PIRO® liquid handling robot to the Russian market.” said Dr. Walser.

“Our presentations will focus on presenting PIRO’s personal pipetting capabilities, with its powerful software for qPCR and all molecular biology related lab tasks,” he explained.

“We will also show further application possibilities in fields like MALDI-TOF, HPLC and other life science-related laboratory tasks,” Dr. Walser added.

Symposium opportunities

“We will be reaching out to potential end users and heads of laboratories looking for full traceability of their pipetting work and needing precise and reproducible automation of their pipetting steps,” said Mrs. Zakharova.

“We will also be offering opportunities for distributors interested in selling the PIRO bench top pipetting robot in Russia and eastern European markets,” she added.

“Our stand visitors will also have the chance to benefit from the chance to use a PIRO® console free of charge on any new projects started now that will lead to an order within three months,” said Anna Zakharova.

About JLSF 2017

Russia’s 2017 Joint Life Sciences Forum (JLSF) combines two events, the 8th Russian Proteins and Peptides Symposium, together with the 12th International Scientific Conference on Bioorganic Chemistry, devoted to the memory of Professor Yuri Ovchinnikov.

The joint meeting is a five-day event, opening September 18 at the Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow.

The program will include keynote lectures from three former Nobel Prize-winning scientists; Aaron Ciechanover, Thomas Südhof and Arieh Warshel; as well as plenary lectures delivered by international and Russian scientists and symposia on peptidomics and proteomics, peptide synthesis and protein engineering, biotechnology and enzymology, methods of peptide and protein investigation, as well as innovative peptide- and protein-based drugs. Young scientists will present their results in poster sessions and round table discussions.

The event is jointly organized by the M.M. Shemyakin and Yuri Ovchinnikov Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry, the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Russian Biochemical Society with more information at: www.rusbiochem.org/Page127.html
