The FIAlab-2700 is the first commercially available FIA system which offers a four channel syringe pump for aspirating/dispensing carrier, sample, and reagents. The FIAlab-2700 also includes the same four channel peristaltic pump as the FIAlab-2500, and can thus be run in classical peristaltic pump based FIA mode. Or utilize both the syringe and peristaltic pumps for more complex "hybrid" assays. This is system ideal for the research laboratory exploring new FIA approaches. Several advantages are realized by using the four syringe pump system: - No need to ever replace expensive peristaltic pump tubing.
- Precise speed and volume control, allowing the user to run methods in either continuous or stop flow mode.
- Pulsation is all but eliminated, allowing smoother flow. This can be critical for ultra low level assays.
- Relative flowrate between the channels is achieved by using different syringe sizes.
- Less reagent is used than with classical peristaltic pump based FIA.
