Automating the workflow for microbial screening in lab-sized formats. Compatible with anaerobic environments.
The "QPix FLEX" is a laboratory system that can automate a series of tasks from plating to streaking, colony picking, and liquid handling. Equipped with a high-resolution color camera that identifies the shape and color of colonies, it achieves high-precision picking. With a compact size of W640mm × D550mm × H710mm, it can be installed in low-oxygen and anaerobic chambers, reducing the time spent on repetitive manual tasks and contributing to improved throughput and quality. 【Features】 - Automates each step of microbial screening. It supports labor-intensive liquid handling tasks such as media dispensing, glycerol addition, plating, and hit picking. - High-precision picking reduces rework and sample loss. - A replaceable tip system allows for compatibility with multiple varieties using a single unit. - Ensures traceability of each process and sample through 2D barcode reading. *For more details, please refer to the materials available for download in the catalog.
