Abstract: Laboratory table with front and opposite rear frame parts, has replaceable tabletop elements positionable thereon. In a first variant, the laboratory table further has detent openings at regular distances on the front and/or rear frame parts, defining a modular grid. Each opening can receive a detent bolt of a modular tabletop element, each element having at least two detent bolts for the insertion into one of the detent openings. In a second variant, each tabletop element has at least one detent opening on a front and/or rear side of the tabletop element, for insertion of a detent bolt. The front and/or rear frame part of the laboratory table have detent bolts arranged at a regular distance defining a modular grid, each one of the detent bolts being for insertion into one of the detent openings of the tabletop elements positioned on these front and rear frame parts.

Abstract: A guiding frame for a laboratory automation device comprises: a bottom side for placing the guiding frame on a component of the laboratory automation device; a top side with a position detection area; and an opening for accessing a port of the component, which opening is arranged besides the position detection area. The position detection area has two recesses, each recess having two straight edges, which from a view direction onto the top side are arranged inclined with respect to each other. The bottom side comprises alignment means for aligning the guiding frame with respect to the component, the alignment means comprising a base surface for contacting a top surface of the component and/or guiding surfaces for contacting walls of the component.

Abstract: A pipetting apparatus and method capable of detecting a liquid within an intermediate section of a pipette tube of the pipetting apparatus. The intermediate section is located between an upper section of the pipette tube at which a first electrode is arranged and a lower section at which a second electrode is arranged. The first and second electrodes form a measurement capacitor and are operationally connected to an impedance measurement unit, which is adapted to detect whether liquid, such as a portion of a sample liquid or system liquid, is present within the intermediate section based on the measured impedance or change of impedance, e.g. an increase of the capacitance and/or a decrease of the resistance, of the measurement capacitor caused by a presence of the liquid within the intermediate section.
