ABSTRACT:
An automated biological sample aliquoting processing system is disclosed for handling biological samples. The system reads and records a sample identification number, cuts a biological sample, and places a portion of the biological sample into a specific location in a multi-well plate. The system ensures sample integrity and also greatly reduces the man hours currently required to process biological samples. The system, which automates sample cutting and aliquoting, reduces the time and cost of operation, while eliminating manual steps in a laboratory process.
