Hi, With the electronic Biohit 8 channel pipette you can set up 3x96 drops in 5 minutes. Lowest volume is 0.2 ul. We have used this system for a couple of years with RNase free filter tips for RNA-protein complexes. With the recent arrival of a shared Mosquito we have used the Biohit less but it is still convenient to have the setup. You need good eyesight and a steady hand, though.
