8.4 Labware library
epBlue is delivered with a comprehensive labware library. The library contains data on the geometry of
reaction vessels, pipette tips, plates, racks, reservoirs, adapters and blocks. A complete list of labware can
be found on the
www.eppendorf.com/automation webpage.
Eppendorf AG creates files for labware from other manufacturers. Eppendorf AG does not regularly check
labware from other manufacturers. For example, if a manufacturer changes the dimensions of a vessel, the
labware definition no longer matches the changed vessel.
