BMS.Labware_Content Class¶

The BMS.Labware_Content class is used as container for storing information about the content of a labware well.

Creating the Labware_Content¶

First, the BMS generic tools module is imported as BMS

In [1]:

import BiomationScripter as BMS

import BiomationScripter as BMS

Next, the initial information is defined

In [2]:

Name = "Liquid1"
Volume = 10 # uL
Liquid_Class = "AQ_BP"

Name = "Liquid1" Volume = 10 # uL Liquid_Class = "AQ_BP"

Then, the Labware_Content object can be created

In [3]:

Content1 = BMS.Labware_Content(
    Name = Name,
    Volume = Volume,
    Liquid_Class = Liquid_Class
)

Content1 = BMS.Labware_Content( Name = Name, Volume = Volume, Liquid_Class = Liquid_Class )

Information is retrieved using the get_info method

In [4]:

Content1.get_info()

Content1.get_info()

Out[4]:

['Liquid1', 10, 'AQ_BP']

The Liquid_Class argument is optional and defaults to None

In [5]:

Content2 = BMS.Labware_Content(
    Name = Name,
    Volume = Volume
)
Content2.get_info()

Content2 = BMS.Labware_Content( Name = Name, Volume = Volume ) Content2.get_info()

Out[5]:

['Liquid1', 10, None]

Labware_Content objects are also created by Labware_Layout objects when Labware_Layout.add_content is called. See the code snippets here for more information.
