ABSTRACT:
A robotic system for performing nucleic acid sequencing reactions in microtiter plate format. The robot has a robot arm and its controller, robot hands with which it can manipulate microtiter plates with lids and microtiter plates without lids and with which it can perform pipetting in the 5 to 200 microliter range, cooled storage chambers with electronically controllable doors for storage of microtiter plates, cooled storage with an electronically controllable cover for storage of nucleic acid sequencing reagents, heating blocks to incubate the reactions at appropriate temperatures above ambient temperature, storage for boxes of micropipet tips, storage for microtiter plates in which sequence reactions will be performed and software for controlling the operation of the robot during pipetting.
