Benefits of technology

The technical effect of this patented invention is that it allows for more efficient use of biochip technology by providing an equipment with fewer pipettes than what was previously needed.

Problems solved by technology

This patent describes a technical problem addressed in this patent text relating to the handling of liquids during genetic tests involving DNA microarrays. Specifically, it highlighted concerns about accurate liquid volumes, contamination, and multiple process steps required at once, making it difficult to achieve high efficiency in large numbers of samples. Therefore, the solution presented involves developing a more efficient and effective method for carrying out these processes.
