Microtiter Plate
Standard tool in analytical research and clinical diagnostic testing laboratories
Contains 6, 24, 96, 384 or 1536 sample wells arranged in a rectangular matrix
Each well typically holds liquids of up to 200 microliters
Designed to be disposable and usually made of plastic

Use of Microtiter Plate
Antibody-antigen binding can be detected Can detect specific biological, chemical or
physical events in samples stored in these plates

Manual Scanning
Motor can be initiated by adding correct serial number from the front panel
After a few seconds, sub-VI of motor control will be displayed
This is an ActiveX component of LabVIEW
From this faceplate, speed, scan interval, direction, home, and jog sequence can be controlled
![Page 31: Controlled Scanning of Microtiter Plates through the Use of LabVIEW® Erica Chin Anton Edmund Samir Laoui May 14, 2008](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d4c5503460f94a2b14b/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Manual Scanning Results
Useful information through error code panel
No error was observed
Manual scanning was successful
![Page 32: Controlled Scanning of Microtiter Plates through the Use of LabVIEW® Erica Chin Anton Edmund Samir Laoui May 14, 2008](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d4c5503460f94a2b14b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Automatic Scanning
Motors A and B have to be activated or initialized
- It moves its predefined speed with preset
interval
- It works without interruption but with 10003
error code
- Error was send to THORLABS to be
investigated

Automatic Scanning
![Page 34: Controlled Scanning of Microtiter Plates through the Use of LabVIEW® Erica Chin Anton Edmund Samir Laoui May 14, 2008](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d4c5503460f94a2b14b/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Initial Position and Optimize Position
LabVIEW was terminated with this error message
These commands are not operating because of lack of hardware component
![Page 35: Controlled Scanning of Microtiter Plates through the Use of LabVIEW® Erica Chin Anton Edmund Samir Laoui May 14, 2008](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d4c5503460f94a2b14b/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Discussion
Manual scanning can be controlled via front panel In order to perform automated scanning, two channel
step motors are required Automated scanning was not executed successfully
due to lack of hardware component USB connections are not the ideal set up for high
sensitive scanning ActiveX component for THORLABS in LabVIEW
doesn’t work 100% Similar discrepancy has been observed in Analog
Device’s BLACKFIN communication with LabVIEW
![Page 36: Controlled Scanning of Microtiter Plates through the Use of LabVIEW® Erica Chin Anton Edmund Samir Laoui May 14, 2008](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d4c5503460f94a2b14b/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Recommendations
Need to have the all the components prior to LabVIEW programming in order to avoid unnecessary LabVIEW coding and debugging
Initiate both channels for auto-connection Avoid USB connections
![Page 37: Controlled Scanning of Microtiter Plates through the Use of LabVIEW® Erica Chin Anton Edmund Samir Laoui May 14, 2008](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d4c5503460f94a2b14b/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Conclusions
Although we do not have appropriate hardware for automated scanning, manual scanning work as desired
By using our program, microtiter plates can be scanned for biosensor applications
Further testing is necessary with all hardware components
