VIPS PRO (Verified In-situ Plate Seeding) is a device capable of high-efficiency single-cell seeding. After seeding single cells into a micro-well plate, it automatically checks for the presence of cells in the wells using its unique artificial intelligence and adds culture medium automatically. After the seeding process is completed, you can confirm the wells where single cells were successfully seeded using a heatmap. Additionally, the cell reservoirs and tubes used for cell seeding are gamma-sterilized single-use items, which helps to avoid the risk of cell contamination and introduction.
