Two UK companies have agreed to collaborate to offer automated micro-plate handling capabilities for single cell analysis. Peak Analysis and Automation’s S-LAB plate handler will be integrated with Sphere Fluidics’ Cyto-Mine Single Cell Analysis System.
The companies aim to help increase throughput in antibody discovery and cell line development by reducing hands-on intervention.
Dr Malcolm Crook, Peak Analysis and Automation Technical Director, called it: “A simple and flexible solution to further improve workflows and reduce costs associated with a more labour-intensive approach.”
Dr Frank Craig, Sphere Fluidics CEO, expanded: “We will be able to offer improved throughput capabilities to help reduce timelines in biotherapeutic discovery and cell-line development.”
