Webinar Announcement: Automating RNA-seq Library Prep: From Rare Cells scRNA-seq to High-Throughput Bulk RNA-seq

For automating NGS library preparation and PCR workflows! Compatible with various applications.

With the powerful specifications of our firefly, we have added the functions of a thermal cycler and additional deck space, achieving full walk-away capability. It is equipped with different dispensing heads: - Multi-channel dispensing head (apricot-head) compatible with 96ch / 384ch / 8-channel / 16-channel chips, supporting operations such as sample transfer, mixing, and supernatant removal. - Independent non-contact dispensing head (dragonfly-head): Utilizing a positive displacement method, this non-contact dispensing is specialized for reagent dispensing and can handle high viscosity and high-density liquids. - Download ready-to-use protocols from the cloud. Protocols created in collaboration with reagent manufacturers and confirmed for operation are updated sequentially, allowing experiments to proceed with confidence. - Intuitive software that requires no special PC knowledge, designed to be user-friendly. - The firefly + is compact (W 1080 x D 560 x H 800 mm). - Equipped with a thermal cycler. - The storage shelf includes additional deck space (large 15 spaces, small 9 spaces), accommodating even higher throughput.

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

◆ Equipped with different dispensing heads 　・Supports 96ch / 384ch / 8-channel / 16-channel chips, multi-channel dispensing head (apricot-head) 　・Independent 3 or 6 channel non-contact dispensing head (dragonfly-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.

In this webinar by SPT Labtech and Alithea Genomics, we will introduce practical methods to eliminate bottlenecks in library preparation, from single-cell RNA-seq to bulk RNA-seq. - Streamlining rare cell workflows: By combining FLASH-seq and firefly, we can complete full-length scRNA-seq library preparation from low-input or FACS-sorted samples in one day. - Scaling up bulk RNA-seq: Achieve high-throughput screening compatible with 96/384 well plates using extraction-free, plate-based solutions like Total DRUG-seq. - Accelerating the process from sample to data: We will provide practical tips for reducing manual work and smoothly integrating automation. - Case studies: We will demonstrate the effectiveness through case studies and real data in various applications of RNA-seq.

Join our expert webinar to discover how SPT Labtech's mosquito liquid handler is transforming the approach to assay miniaturization. - Smartly scaling up workflows at the nanoliter scale: Learn how to optimize existing genomics, screening, and chemistry protocols for ultra-low volumes, and the new possibilities that arise from this. - Considering value beyond cost reduction: Miniaturization enables innovative applications such as single-cell omics, workflows for direct processing from cells, and optimization of parallel reactions. Real case studies: We will present examples of academic and industrial labs that have successfully scaled up their research using mosquito.

Our company will be exhibiting equipment at the "Mediseo Medical Fair 2025 in Tokai." We sincerely look forward to your visit.

As you advance the utilization of AI, you may face challenges such as "while certain results are achieved in validation, they do not translate into operational use," "the model has been created, but it cannot be implemented into measures, making ROI difficult to explain," and "collecting and preprocessing the data for utilization takes time." This presentation will explain a method to streamline data preparation with no-code solutions, generate key features that are essential for AI accuracy, train them using the latest algorithms, and automate the implementation up to actual marketing measures.
