1. A method, comprising:
operating a pump to draw a biological sample from a well of a well plate into a pipette through a pipette tip of the pipette;
operating a first actuator to move a first valve to a closed position to seal the biological sample within the pipette from the pipette tip;
operating the pump to apply a positive gage pressure to the biological sample within the pipette;
