What is the Artel MVS Multichannel Verification System?

The Artel MVS is a liquid handling verification system designed to measure the dispensed volume performance of automated liquid handling systems and multichannel handheld pipettes. It uses a photometric measurement approach to verify volumes across microplate wells, helping laboratories assess accuracy, precision and channel-to-channel consistency.

Unlike manual gravimetric checks, the MVS is designed for multichannel and plate-based workflows. This makes it particularly useful for laboratories working with high-throughput screening, assay development, biotechnology, pharmaceutical research, clinical testing and regulated quality control environments.

John Morris Group distributes Advanced Instruments liquid handling verification solutions, including the Artel MVS bundles, supporting laboratories that require reliable verification systems for liquid handling performance.

Liquid handling verification using microplate workflow

Built for multichannel and automated workflows

Multichannel pipettes and automated liquid handlers are used to dispense many samples at once. While this improves speed and throughput, it also makes verification more important. A single underperforming channel or dispensing head can introduce variation across a plate.

The MVS helps laboratories check whether liquid handling devices are dispensing accurately and consistently across channels, rows, columns and plate formats.

How the MVS verification workflow works

1

Dispense

The system uses prepared verification solutions and diluent in a microplate format, reducing the need for in-house dye preparation or manual standard curve generation.

2

Read

The plate reader measures absorbance values in each well and supports volume calculation without requiring traditional weighing methods.

3

Verify

ArtelWare software calculates accuracy and precision, helping teams review performance by well, row, column, tip or channel.

Why liquid handling verification matters

Liquid handling equipment is often used at the beginning of critical workflows. If volume delivery is inaccurate, the impact may carry through the entire process. This can affect sample preparation, reagent addition, assay performance, result interpretation and reproducibility.

Regular verification helps laboratories identify liquid handling issues before they become larger quality problems. It can also help teams compare performance across instruments, users, protocols and locations.

For laboratories working under quality systems or regulatory expectations, the MVS also supports documentation and audit readiness by creating clear verification records.

Available bundle options from John Morris Group

John Morris Group offers MVS bundle options to suit different laboratory plate formats. Laboratories working primarily with 96-well workflows may choose the 96-well bundle, while laboratories requiring both 96- and 384-well verification can select the expanded 96 and 384-well configuration.

These bundles are designed to provide the core hardware, software and start-up consumables required for liquid handling verification workflows.
