In this episode, SPT Labtech’s Melissa Netwal and Jonathan Faherty share their personal experiences navigating the challenges of single-use plastics in the lab. They dive into practical alternatives, like reusing and washing tips, while acknowledging these methods aren’t always a perfect fit. The conversation also explores how non-contact dispensing technologies, such as those found in dragonfly® discovery, can provide a more sustainable and efficient solution. By cutting down on single-use plastics, these innovations not only help reduce waste but also support a wide range of life science applications, from Design of Experiments (DoE) in drug discovery to NGS and PCR setups in genomics.
