plateo 0.3.1

Read/write microplate and picklist data for lab automation

Plateo (pronounced Plato, like the planet) is a Python library to assist in the planning, running and checking of laboratory experiments involving microplates.

It can be used to:

• Read and write robotic protocols (picklists) in different formats to accomodate different liquid dispensers (Tecan EVO, Labcyte Echo).

• Simulate liquid dispensing runs, taking into account the capacity and dead volume of each container, to predict the maps of future plates.

• Parse plate data from common laboratory robots (for kinetic experiments, fragment analysis, qPCR, etc.)

• Export plate information in various formats (graphics, spreadsheets, HTML, JSON, etc.).
