ABgene has added two new instruments to its suite of biostorage products, the SmartScan 96 rack reader and the SmartScan Solo single tube reader
As experimental history becomes increasingly crucial in the day-to-day handling of samples, more sophisticated tracking is required to maintain this knowledge.
Created to be used with ABgene's SmartScan 2D coded cluster tubes, the SmartScan instrumentation line is designed for the rapid decoding of 2D codes from sample libraries of all sizes.
SmartScan 96 offers unparalleled speed and efficiency for decoding.
One of the fastest rack readers on the market, dual CCD cameras can decode a 96-place SBS footprint rack in less than six seconds.
Its small footprint makes it ideal for integration onto the deck of liquid handling robots.
The SmartScan Solo provides fast and efficient scanning of individual tubes.
With a compact design, (no taller than a soft drink can in height, and the diameter of a CD) it is the ideal companion for users wishing to optimise sample tracking.
Suitable for use with all ABgene SmartScan tubes, it decodes a single tube in less than one second, providing quick and reliable identification and making it ideal for those new to sample tracking.
Both SmartScan models offer a variety of data export options, are compatible with Windows 2000 and XP and enable data export to xls and csv file formats.
The SmartScan96 features TCP/IP command protocol, making it ideal for robotic integration.
