Wells to Read
You can choose which plate wells to read in your experiment. You can
choose a combination of wells, from one well only to all the wells in a
plate. Partial-plate reading can significantly reduce the time required for
certain types of readings because the instrument does not have to read
the entire plate.
Figure 3-18:
Wells to Read Setting
Select the wells you want read by dragging the pointer. Wells must be
contiguous, and in a rectangular arrangement, but do not need to start in
the column 1. You can choose a partial row or column, or a single well.
When planning your experiment, remember that the instrument makes
fluid transfers and readings one column at a time. You might want to use
partial rows (A through H) rather than partial columns (1 through 12 or 1
through 24) for most situations.
Note:
The selected wells must be contiguous and in a rectangular
arrangement.
