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 even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is kept to a minimum. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.

What is an Air Leak Tester? An "Air Leak Tester" is a device that pressurizes the inside (or outside) of a sealed workpiece with air and determines the presence of leaks based on pressure changes. When a master with no leaks and a workpiece with leaks are pressurized, the pressure on the workpiece side decreases, creating a pressure difference between the two. By measuring this pressure difference, the presence of leaks can be determined. Generally, differential pressure air leak testing is widely used, but Fukuda also offers products that utilize direct pressure leak testing and flow meters according to the leak rate, in addition to differential pressure leak testers. Since the air leak tester uses air as the measurement medium, it incurs no running costs and is environmentally friendly.
