Microarray laboratory platform integrates instrumentation, workflow information tracking, and data analysis into a productive state-of-the-art offering
PerkinElmer has announced the introduction of a new generation microarray informatics solution to automate integrated data management from microarray spotters, scanners and gene expression data analysis.
With current microarray data tracking and data analysis requirements going beyond first generation file storage formats and excel spreadsheet analysis macros, this innovative set of laboratory microarray tools provides gene expression researchers with powerful ArrayInformatics software.
This software automates data flow from SpotArray24 or SpotArray72 microarray printers and the ScanArray Express family of microarray scanners.
The integrated microarray laboratory software significantly streamlines the microarray production and analysis process.
Currently, data tracking and analysis is a predominately manual process that can slow productivity with questionable data integrity.
PerkinElmer's microarray-focused Lims (laboratory information management system) enables more dynamic, comprehensive process record keeping and accountability.
This integrated software and instrumentation platform enabled by the new releases is unprecedented in the industry, and is available only from PerkinElmer.
"Informatics is a high priority for the life sciences industry," said Peter Coggins, president of PerkinElmer Life and Analytical Sciences.
"This microarray laboratory platform integrates instrumentation, workflow information tracking, and data analysis into a productive state-of-the-art offering.
PerkinElmer is maintaining its leadership role in informatics by integrating microarray spotters, scanners, and data analysis software together in a convenient and cost-effective package."
