Reagents should be dispensed into single-use aliquots. The classical method of diagnosis is to culture aliquots of haemolymph in phenylethyl alcohol broth. First, cells are sorted into single aliquots using [[Flow cytometry|fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS)]]. A high-precision syringe may be used to deliver very precise aliquots. "Advantages"&colon; very small sample aliquots can be examined. The first step at the testing site is to split the urine into two aliquots. We happened to leave one of the protein aliquots on the laboratory bench overnight. Theodore Steinway of Steinway & Sons patented tunable aliquots in 1872. Mason & Hamlin, established in Boston in 1854, continued to use individual aliquots. Aliquot stringing and the duplex scale, even if they use "aliquots", are not equivalent.
