acCELLerate – turnkey cell based assay kits, Hamburg

Setting a new standard for cell based assays is our aim: assays which are reliable and predictable but robust and convenient to use at the same time. instaCELL® bioassay kits come with all required reagents and materials - including the cells.The cells are frozen in an assay ready format and can be used like a reagent without prior cultivation or even cell counting. All assay components are cross validated for the particular application to provide a maximum of convenience and reliability. Specialists might value the ease to set-up the turnkey assays but even laboratories which are not experienced in cell culture techniques can run acCELLerate instaCELL assays with reproducible results.

Artel

Artel is the world-leading liquid handling quality assurance expert, specializing in solving liquid handling quality, productivity and compliance challenges for life science laboratories.
Artel recently introduced VMS® (Volume Measurement System) which allows for liquid handling process validation and verification within customer’s actual workflow. The system is able to accurately and repeatedly measure the volumes of samples in each a well without regard to the nature and colour of the samples or the shape of the well and type of plastic.
The MVS® (Multichannel Verification System) enables users to verify the performance of any single- or multichannel liquid handler, pipettor or dispenser in a single measurement, in less than 5 minutes. MVS provides tip by tip accuracy and precision data even at low volumes (0.01µl – 350µl) and allows for direct comparison between any liquid-handler regardless of make, model or location.

Blue CatBio GmbH

BlueCatBio has developed a fully automated, contactless way of plate washing and media change. The BlueWasher uses centrifugation instead of aspiration for non-contact and contamination-free removal of liquids from all plate formats, including 1536 well. It achieves near zero residual volume and eliminates problems associated with conventional, aspiration-based washers. The BlueWasher reduces assay background and variability, eliminates wash steps and needle clogging, while increasing throughput, reliability and saving consumable cost with tipless media-changes in cell-based screening and magnetic bead wash applications.
