Painting Genes in Parallel

Knowledge of the tissues and cells that express particular genes is key to understanding gene function. In situ hybridization (ISH), a popular method for deciphering gene expression, is a slow, labor-intensive, error-prone operation that limits parallel investigation of multiple genes and tissues to what may be carried out quickly by hand. These attributes essentially preclude slide-staining efforts from the high-throughput analyses that are so critical to functional genomics research. But a new system from Tecan Group, Männedorf, Switzerland, could change all that. Based on an estabilished piptetting robot platform...

Cell and protein array washing
Individual software control of critical wash parameters, such as aspiration and dispense
speeds and wash head positions, allows fine-tuning of the washer to suit your cell type
or protein array, providing optimal wash results. In addition, a very gentle drop-wise
dispense mode and move function ensure minimal cell detachment, even with  weaklyadherent cell types...

Speed and control for optimized washing of cells, beads and ELISAs

Are you washing away your cells?

Loosely adherent cell lines, such as P815 and HEK 293, are commonly used for a wide range of research applications, but are challenging to wash for typical plate washers. Excessive dispense speeds can cause detachment of cells and holes in the cell layer. Coupled with loss of cells during poorly controlled aspiration, this can lead to reproducibility issues and high CVs, resulting in failed experiments, repeat testing and a loss of productivity.

Tecan offers two software packages for its complete range of microplate readers – i-control and Magellan. While i-control is the operating interface for all of Tecan’s Infinite® series readers, the Magellan software provides superior data reduction and data processing capabilities, and is compatible with all Tecan microplate instruments.
