class science_jubilee.tools.Loop.Loop(index, name)

Bases: science_jubilee.tools.Tool.Tool

A class representation of an inoculation loop.

Parameters:

Tool (Tool) – The base tool class

transfer(source: science_jubilee.labware.Labware.Well = None, destination: science_jubilee.labware.Labware.Well = None, s: int = 2000, sweep_x: float = 5, sweep_y: float = 5, sweep_z: float = 10, sweep_speed: float = 100, up_speed: float = 800, randomize_pickup: bool = False)

Dip into a number of (source, destination) well pairs. Used for transferring items from source to destination.

Parameters:

• source (Well, optional) – Source well, defaults to None

• destination (Well, optional) – Destination well, defaults to None

• s (int, optional) – Movement speed in mm/min, defaults to 2000

• sweep_x (float, optional) – Distance (in mm) to sweep in the x direction to pick up material, defaults to 5

• sweep_y (float, optional) – Distance (in mm) to sweep in the y direction to pick up material, defaults to 5

• sweep_z (float, optional) – Distance (in mm) to move in the z direction to pick up material, defaults to 10

• sweep_speed (float, optional) – Speed (in mm/min) at which to sweep to pick up material, defaults to 100

• up_speed (float, optional) – Speed to move out of well (in mm/min), defaults to 800

• randomize_pickup (bool, optional) – Move to a random position in the source well to pick up material, defaults to False

static _get_xyz(well: science_jubilee.labware.Labware.Well = None, location: Tuple[float] = None)

Get the (x,y,z) position of a well.

Parameters:

• well (Well, optional) – The well to fetch position of, defaults to None

• location (Tuple[float], optional) – Directly specify an (x,y,z) location, defaults to None

Raises:

ValueError – Must specify either a well or a location

Returns:

The well location

Return type:

Tuple[float, float, float]

static _get_top_bottom(well: science_jubilee.labware.Labware.Well = None)

Get the top and bottom heights of a well.

Parameters:

well (Well, optional) – The well to fetch position of, defaults to None

Returns:

The z-height of the top and bottom of the well

Return type:

Tuple[float, float]
