High-Throughput Plate Handling
The CFX Automation System II is the only robotic microplate handler that can operate two real-time PCR detection systems at the same time without the need for custom software. This true walk-away, high-throughput real-time PCR automation system:
■■ Doubles throughput — 96-well and 384-well real-time PCR detection systems can be paired as required and serviced by a single plate handler
■■ Conserves benchspace — two real-time PCR detection systems can be serviced using a fraction of the footprint of other automation systems
■■ Automates protocol assignment — barcode-specific cycling protocols can be assigned to each plate with or without LIMS integration
HIGH THROUGHPUT
From tissue culture to real-time PCR without time-consuming RNA purification steps. Prepare real-time PCR compatible cell lysates in a single 10 minute step using SingleShot™ Cell Lysis RT-qPCR Kits.
Comprehensive Portfolio of Consumables
Our line of robotics-compatible real-time PCR consumables was designed specifically with automation in mind. Products include:
■■ Temperature-stable supermixes■■ Warp-free Hard-Shell® PCR Plates■■ One-step RT-qPCR kits■■ Kits for RNA purification-independent direct qPCR
Twice the throughput. Half the footprint.The CFX Automation System II can operate two CFX Real-Time PCR Detection Systems at once, doubling throughput and saving valuable benchspace.
From Plates to Analyzed Data in Three Clicks
High-Throughput Automated Solutions for Drug Discovery and Development Our CFX Real-Time PCR Detection Systems, wide range of real-time PCR consumables, and the CFX Automation System II provide streamlined, high-throughput solutions for applications such as:
■■ Target discovery ■■ Target validation■■ Lead screening ■■ Lead optimization■■ Biomarker studies
