Norwegian Sequencing Centre enhances multiomic workflows with automated liquid handling

NGS library preparation and PCR/qPCR workflow, active in various scenes!

◆ Equipped with different dispensing heads 　・384 channel dispensing head, Auto feed Loas function 　・Independent 3 or 6 channel non-contact dispensing head In NGS library preparation, sample transfer, mixing, and supernatant removal (bead purification) are handled by chip-type dispensing heads, while the addition of various reagents such as buffers and enzymes is managed by non-contact dispensing heads. This enables low dead volume, significant reduction in chip consumption, increased speed, and space-saving (reduction in the number of required chip racks). Additionally, the dragonfly head can dispense from 200nL, allowing for the execution of micro-volume protocols. It also supports screening in general drug discovery. With a compact design (W 660 x D 560 x H 800 mm), it contributes to solving space issues in laboratories. Screening, high throughput. Compatible with high viscosity and high density. For applications such as NGS library preparation, DNA/RNA extraction and purification, etc.

High versatility, high viscosity is also not a problem. Positive displacement non-contact dispenser.

The Dragonfly Discovery is a new non-contact dispenser that employs both positive displacement technology and disposable syringes. With its high versatility and user-friendly software, it can accommodate various assays and research with just one unit. ● Positive Displacement Technology This method uses a piston to push out the liquid. It allows for accurate dispensing of various solutions, such as those with viscosity and surface tension, without the need for class settings for each liquid. Examples: 80% glycerol, 50% EtOH, cell suspensions, etc. ● Supports Various Assays With intuitive dedicated software, you can easily design dispensing for biochemical assays, cell-based assays, bead-based assays, and more. It is also possible to control dispensing time, perform normalization, and dispense in a gradient-like manner. ● No Contamination Using disposable syringes eliminates the risk of carryover and cross-contamination. This dispensing machine has high versatility, suitable for DoE (Design of Experiment), ELISA, three-dimensional cell culture, protein crystallization assays, and more.

• Automatic Dispensing Device

For dispensing applications of several hundred nL!

The "mosquito HTS" is a robust nanoliter-scale dispensing device that employs a positive displacement method. It not only allows for precise aspiration and dispensing but also enables accurate mixing, making it suitable for various applications. By minimizing the sample volume in sample management workflows and genomics research, it contributes to cost reduction. ● Cost reduction through miniaturization and low dead volume With its accurate dispensing mechanism, it handles precious samples and expensive reagents in small volumes while minimizing dead volume, significantly reducing running costs. ● Reduced hands-on time and improved reproducibility through automation With rapid and precise operation, it eliminates dispensing errors and cross-contamination caused by human error, enhancing reproducibility. ● Improved data reliability through increased sample size The benefits of miniaturization extend beyond mere cost savings; it allows for multiple experiments to be conducted in parallel, thereby enhancing data reliability. ● User-friendly The easy-to-use software makes the protocol creation process very simple.

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact on the base material. Repairs can be carried out in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.

● The production time for casting prototypes can be shortened! Since model production is not required, the time needed to create prototypes, which previously took about a month, can be significantly reduced. ● Model costs can be reduced! By directly producing sand molds from 3D data, there is no need for model production costs. If changes to the model are necessary, they can be addressed by modifying the 3D data. ● Similar products with different shapes and dimensions can be prototyped simultaneously! With one molding process, different products with similar shapes or varying dimensions can be molded at the same time. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.

Are you struggling to explain "safety" to the client using just drawings? - The risks in blind spots are difficult to convey to the client through drawings alone. - Safety measures often become a target for cost reduction, making it hard to communicate their necessity. - There is a concern that the client might say, "It's more dangerous than I thought," after completion. Risks that are visible to design professionals are not easily understood intuitively by clients who are outside the field. This document is not just a simple explanation of sensor functions; it is a guide to visually explain "why sensors are necessary in that location." It can be used directly as explanatory material for the client. Here are three key points for utilizing this document: 1. Visualization of Risks Blind spots during vehicle departure and contact risks within the site are illustrated clearly. 2. Clarification of Selection Criteria A comparison table outlines the differences between complex sensor types such as infrared, ultrasonic, and loop coils. 3. Diagram of System Configuration It illustrates not just the sensors alone, but how they combine with components like rotating lights and control panels, providing practical assistance for electrical equipment design. Please make use of this to prevent "rework after completion" and "accident risks."

In facilities operating nurse call systems, we have made the bed exit sensor wireless, allowing it to notify in conjunction with the nurse call system. By simply connecting the mat sensor "Foldable Thin Matt-kun," the body movement call "Ugo-kun," and the wheelchair body movement call "Ayumi-chan" to the transmitter HB-RS, you can make the bed exit sensor wireless. The infrared sensor "Just Place Pole-kun" has the transmitter HB-RS built-in. This helps prevent accidents caused by falls, slips, or wandering, contributing to the efficiency of medical operations. 【Features】 ○ Wireless conversion by simply connecting existing sensors to the transmitter HB-WSK. ○ The bed exit sensor notifies wirelessly in conjunction with the nurse call system. ○ Up to 5 transmitters can be registered with a single receiver. ○ The communication distance between the transmitter and receiver is approximately 10 meters. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
