The Benefits
Create and maintain a shared repository of liquid handling policies
Collaborate on policy development across teams
Ensure consistency in liquid handling guidelines
The collection can evolve dynamically, based on your needs

Create and upload liquid policies
Your Synthace Liquid Policy inventory will come pre-configured with a set of commonly used liquid policies. You can also create individual policies directly in the inventory, or in bulk, by uploading an .XLSX file.
I. Creating policies directly in the inventory
Simply create a new policy, and define the liquid handling parameters for the policy.
Learn more about this here.
II. Upload an Excel file containing your liquid policy definitions.
When creating large numbers of liquid policies, we recommend using the Bulk upload from Excel option. Simply define your policies in a excel file and import this to Synthace

Liquid policy rules and defaults
Liquid policies consist of a set of conditions and consequences. When the conditions of a Liquid Policy are meet, the consequences will be applied to the liquid handling plan generated by Synthace. These conditions and consequences are used to create rules. Rules define the logic of how a liquid transfer should be handled.
Check out this article to learn how to create your own liquid policy rules.
If a rule does not have a corresponding consequence for a parameter then a predefined default will be applied by Synthace automatically.
The table below outlines these default settings.
Define and view the details of Liquid Policy rules
For even more flexibility, you can create rules for your liquid policies. This allows Synthace to automatically adapt the way liquids are handled depending on the conditions of a liquid transfer.
