Automated Cell-based Screening

Cell-based screening has become a key tool in the drug discovery portfolio, helping to speed up both the selection of valid leads and the profiling of medicinal chemistry compound against cellular targets.

Cell-based screening has become a key tool in the drug discovery portfolio, helping to speed up both the selection of valid leads and the profiling of medicinal chemistry compound against cellular targets. The ability to automate robust solutions for running cell-based assays is key to the success of screening campaigns.

 

Automated Cell-based Screening process
 

Tecan offers solutions for all steps of automated cell-based screening. The flexibility of the Freedom EVO® platform including an integrated reader that is configured for bottom reading or injection for kinetic assays is ideally suited to a wide range of cell-based assays, allowing one instrument to run both assay development and routine production assays.


A number of liquid handing option are available, including 4 – & 8 – channel pipetting with disposable or fixed tips – for the addition of controls or standards – and parallel multichannel MCA96 and MCA384 heads for plate to plate compound transfers and cell additions.


Integration of automated environmentally controlled incubators allows for cell plates to be incubated on the system prior to assay, as well implementation of assays with long incubation times can be carried out without the need to manually transfer assay plates to external CO2 incubators.

 

Are you looking for your own customized solution? Do you want to integrate a specific device? Tecan Integration Group supports you in planning, realization and final installation of a tailor-made solution specific designed for your needs.

Scientific instrumentation. Not for use in human clinical or in-vitro diagnostic procedures.
