Benchtop unit for filling 96, 24, 6 and single well plates with cell-culture media can optionally integrate directly with mammalian cell screening and picking systems
Genetix announces CloneFill - a further extension to its mammalian cell culture automation portfolio.
The system premiered at the Society for Biomolecular Screening's 11th annual conference, held from 11-15 September in Geneva, Switzerland.
CloneFill is a bench-top unit for filling 96, 24, 6 and single well plates with cell-culture media.
An optional stacker system extends the capacity of the standalone unit and integrates directly with both of the Genetix mammalian cell screening and picking systems, ClonePix and ClonePixFL.
Fast and easy to use, method set up takes less a minute and an entire 96 well plate is processed in around 15 seconds, says Genetix.
The new system is convenient and flexible too, it says.
A single manifold fits all plate types and easy-change flow paths allow a single fluid line to be dedicated to a specific media.
Importantly, all liquid contact parts can be sterilised by autoclave.
Genetix provides automated systems for cell biology, and proteomic and genomic research.
It supplies many leading academic institutions worldwide and major international companies involved in the drug discovery process including GSK, AstraZeneca and Novartis.
Genetix made a significant contribution to the Human Genome Project by supplying high-throughput equipment to seven of the leading eight laboratories of the consortium.
Genetix, through its R and D expertise and scientific resource, is committed to the continual development of innovative solutions to accelerate the rate of global scientific discovery.
