Pharmaceutical and biotechnology laboratories performing high-throughput screening, high-content screening and molecular cell biology can now benefit from a series of new automated incubators and storage solutions.
The Thermo Scientific Cytomat 24 automated incubators and storage systems bring the latest incubation technology to large-capacity microplate incubation applications, with excellent temperature uniformity and stability that ensure reproducibility for cell culture applications. The systems provide speedy delivery of microtitre plates through an advanced plate shuttle system to meet the needs of high-throughput laboratories and accelerate research. An LED touchscreen is door mounted for easy accessibility and viewing. Convenient on-screen user prompts provide enhanced ease-of-use.
"As automated systems are adopted across a range of expanding applications, we continue to see new challenges arise, such as the need to minimise contamination risks in large-capacity cell culture applications," said Hansjoerg Haas, senior director and general manager, laboratory automation, Thermo Fisher Scientific. "Through a fully automated ContraCon decontamination routine, the Cytomat 24 automated incubators and storage systems simplify cleaning and disinfection, providing our customers with confidence in their sample integrity. Customers are always looking for opportunities to increase productivity in their processes while ensuring the quality of the samples and results. The Cytomat 24 automated incubators and storage systems reduce the mean plate access time to 15 seconds – allowing users to achieve their research goals in less time."
