    Anybody proficient with Hamilton/Venus?

    Hi all, I hope this isn't a long shot or inappropriate for this forum...

    I'm having troubles with a script I've written for a Hamilton MicroLab Star liquid handler.

    All is golden, except for an issue I've been having trying to use the Nested Tip Racks for standard volume tips. It seems like I may have saved the most complicated bit for last.

    When I add the VISUAL_NTR_Library::Channels_TipCounter_Edit step into my script, and go to run in simulation mode, I keep getting the same error that the program could not find the Visual_NTR_Library.smt file.

    I've double and triple checked that the sub-method is present at the correct place in the file path designated by the error message. I am not sure what is going on here.

    Even when I run a previous script that I imported from a different computer (that runs correctly on the other said PC), I get the same error message regarding the visual NTR library file missing.

    Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you!

    Hello SymphonicBio,

    If you still have any programming questions for your STAR, please let me know. I can get you in contact with one of our specialists.

      Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.

      Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
      by SEQadmin2


      I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

      Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...
