Guava Technologies has teamed up with the Hudson Control Group to provide scientists with an integrated cellular analysis platform.
The company said the platform delivers new levels of throughput for cell counting, viability, and apoptosis and provides automated sample preparation and analysis for a range of Guava turnkey assays in 96-well format.
The platform contains a Guava Easycyte Plus flow cytometer, a Hudson Control Platecrane EX robotic arm, and a Hudson Control Micro10 liquid dispenser, and is linked together and controlled using integration software from both companies.
The Guava Easycyte Plus system delivers high throughput, and multicolour detection for cell analysis and counting.
The system runs all turnkey assays from Guava, including those for cell counting and viability, apoptosis, and cell cycle.
Simultaneous four-colour fluorescence detection on the Guava Easycyte Plus system expands the information obtained from any one well in a 96-well plate, simplifying simultaneous monitoring of extra- and intracellular events that may affect cellular function.
The platform integrates with third-party plate handlers.
