Biotek Instruments will demonstrate its latest cell-based assay solutions at the 16th annual Society for Biomolecular Sciences (SBS) Conference and Exhibition in Phoenix, Arizona, from 11-15 April.
The company will place emphasis on the EL406 combination microplate washer dispenser as a device for the automation of cell-based assays on booth 338.
The EL406 combination microplate washer dispenser has the ability to perform multiple operations for a wide range of cell-based assays, all from a small footprint, into 96-, 384- and 1,536-well densities.
Also on display at Biotek's booth will be product lines emphasising microplate technology for read, wash, dispense and automate.
The Synergy H4 hybrid microplate reader combines filter- and monochromator-based optics in one instrument.
This modular system can be upgraded and is said to provide unlimited assay versatility for current and future microplate-based assays.
Synergy H4 includes absorbance, fluorescence and luminescence detection technologies for a full range of assay compatibility.
Biotek's Epoch multi-volume spectrophotometer system, consisting of the Epoch microplate spectrophotomer and the Take3 multi-volume plate, is designed for life science laboratories with multiple users and assay types.
The Epoch system uses monochromator-based optics for continuous wavelength selection from 200-999nm in 6- to 384-well microplates, 16 2ul microspots, 1cm cuvettes, or Biotek's Biocell 1cm quartz vessel.
Pre-programmed and user-generated programs for Synergy H4 and Epoch are controlled via Gen5 data analysis software.
The EL406 combination microplate washer dispenser offers fast plate washing and dispensing in 1,536-, 384- and 96-well microplate formats.
By combining microplate washing with three reagent dispensers in one compact instrument, researchers can save time, money and bench space.
EL406 is controlled via the instrument's keypad or Liquid Handling Control PC software.
The Precision XS offers single- and multi-channel pipetting along with single- and multi-channel bulk reagent dispensing in one compact platform for functional and flexible experiment design in higher throughputs.
Precision XS is small enough to fit into a biological safety cabinet.
Precision Power software offers complete control with flexible protocol creation.
Biotek's read, wash and dispense products can be configured with Biostack automation modules for increased speed, flexibility and unattended operation.
Biotek will also present additional technical posters at the SBS conference.
