Automated sample preparation using biocrates’ MxP Quant 500 kit with Waters Andrew+ Pipetting Robot

7 May 2025

Sample preparation remains an obstacle to many applications to large-scale studies. Automated sample preparation using robotics can improve reproducibility and throughput while reducing personnel time for such high-throughput analytical
methods. To achieve these benefits and to improve applications to large-scale studies, biocrates life sciences ag presents a protocol for the automated preparation of the MxP® Quant 500 kit, developed using Waters Andrew+™ Pipetting Robot and associated devices.

BiomarkersBiomarkers are biological markers which can be measured and evaluated to indicate a biological state. The use of biomarkers in research and diagnosis can indicate a normal or disease state or drug response of cells / tissues. Biomarkers include genetic markers, cell surface markers such as antigens, antibodies or receptors and secreted molecules such as cytokines. An assay system is required for identification of biomarkers. :Clinical ChemistryBiochemistry (or clinical chemistry) involves the analysis of bodily fluids using chemical tests. Techniques used include HPLC, chromatography, spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, immunochemical, electrophoresis, turbidometric / spectrophotometric assay, MRI and ISE analysis. Tests are often carried out on plasma or serum but urine (urinalysis) and fecal specimens are also processed.High-Throughput ScreeningHigh-throughput screening (HTS) is an automated drug discovery technique for identification of active compounds against a compound library. Use HTS readers and integrated assay preparation / analysis workstations to screen your compounds. Identify active compounds against various HTS libraries, including membranes, proteins and peptides and HTS cell lines.
