Product news

Tecan, one of the world’s leading players in the growing life sciences industry, and its sister company REMP, will be demonstrating a full range of products for genomics, proteomics, drug discovery and clinical diagnostic applications at the LabAutomation 2006 show, booths 305 (Tecan) and 348 (REMP), Palm Springs Convention Center, California, from 21 to 25 January.

Visitors to the show will have the opportunity to see Tecan’s Freedom EVO® 150 and 200 automated liquid handling workstations, equipped with one or two eight tip liquid handling (LiHa) arms, multichannel pipetting heads, robotic manipulator (RoMa) arm, plus a variety of flexible application modules and options.

The new Infinite™ 200 series of flexible and upgradeable multi-function microplate readers will be on display with a choice of monochromator or filter system and combining reagent dispensing with several detection modes. The unique modular design allows the Infinite 200 series to be configured to perform absorbance, fluorescence top and bottom, fluorescence polarization and photon-counting luminescence readings in microplate formats, from 6-384 wells, PCR plates and cuvettes.

Additional products displayed will be the GENios™ Pro, a high performance, modular, filter-based multi-function microplate reader with optional injectors, the flexible Safire2™, a modular, fully adjustable monochromator-based multi-function microplate reader and the all new HS 400™ Pro Hybridization Station.

Pipettes and DispensersPipettes and dispensers are essential lab equipment used to dispense measured volumes of liquid accurately. Explore a range of manual and electronic pipettes, including single and multichannel, serological and volumetric pipettes, as well as a range of pipette tips. Bottle-top dispensers are also available for simple and fast solvent dispensing. Find the best pipettes & dispensers in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Microplate Readers / DetectorsMicroplate readers are used to automate the detection and analysis of labeled or label-free components in microplates during assays or live-cell monitoring. Microplate readers are generally distinguished by their mode of detection. Types include absorbance, luminescence, fluorescence intensity, fluorescence polarization, TRF / FRET and multimode microplate readers. Microplate readers deliver a high throughput of samples by reading multiple wells simultaneously, with the 96-well format the most commonly used. As a result, microplate readers are often used in the drug discovery, bioassays, research and pharmaceutical industries for screening applications. Microplate loading can also be automated, with robotic microplate stackers to increase throughput.

This potential is identified when compounds have the desired effect, such as interaction with a target protein, during high throughput screening.
