CPX-α automated colony picking to streamline scalable screening in drug discovery
26 Jan 2026As discovery workflows become more data‑driven and high‑throughput, researchers need tools that can scale early screening and deliver reproducible results. Manual colony selection and transfer, however, continue to slow teams down.
Explore the CPX™‑α from Curiosis, built to automate colony picking at scale and designed with the flexibility to integrate smoothly into your existing lab workflow to support more reliable downstream assays and faster decisions in drug discovery workflows.

MicrobiologyMicrobiology is the study of microorganisms including protists, prokaryotes, fungi, and, often, viruses. Microorganisms are a useful research tool as genetic vectors and, in immunology, for antibiotic susceptibility testing, cellular biology and genetics. Microorganisms commonly grow readily in incubators with microbial culture media; this can contain chromogenic supplements to differentiate between cell lines. Estimate your culture’s density of microorganisms with colony counters, or screen and select colonies for desirable clones with automated colony pickers. Additionally, equipment is available to monitor environments for the presence of microbes and identify with microbial identification instruments.
