THE NEWEST version of Scienion’s Sciflexarrayer liquid handling robot delivers higher throughput and increased versatility, says the company, boosting its usefulness in multiplexed diagnostics and cellular screening.
Sciflexarraryer S1 has increased deckspace and higher throughout
The new Sciflexarrayer S1 non-contact dispenser exploits the same drop-on-demand technology as previous models, but promises higher productivity in the laboratory at no extra cost.
Deckspace has increased and system versatility has been enhanced with the option to equip the device with multiple dispensers and optical systems.
Developed as a research tool for molecular biology research labs the Sciflexarrayer S1 is capable of non-contact arraying of DNA and proteins, the production of cell transfection arrays, loading of biosensors and the preparation of MALDI targets.
Within one second, liquid volumes between 100 picolitres and 1 microlitre can be spotted in steps of 100 picolitres. The compact system offers deckspace for up to five microplates that can be used either as source or destination locations.
Its compact design means the Sciflexarrayer S1 requires minimal lab space and can be moved around easily.
