HTE for High Viscous and Solid Samples

admin — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 08:50:32 +0000

Synchron Lab Automation has launched its state of the art Synchron Gravidosing formulating system for optimising and improving the accuracy of high and low viscous ink,coatings and other sample formulations.

Consisting of the Gravidos software, Synchron x-y-z Robot and a precision scale, the robotic system gives users the choice of using volumetric and/or gravimetric dosing for the formulation of samples. This is particularly beneficial when formulating highly viscous samples where volumetric dosing may not be accurate enough.

The Gravidose robot incorporates a simple and flexible setup to ease the design and execution of small, medium or large numbered experiments. Thanks to the open platform, the system can work with many external modules such as heating blocks, mixing and stirring stations and bar code readers to name a few. The powerful gripping arm transfers sample containers from any module to the scale and back.

Each pipetting tip holder has an individual level sensor that can accommodate washable or disposable tips. The user has also complete control of each tip movement. The Gravidose robot can carry out numerous heating and stirring techniques and it can dose according to an unlimited number of weight and liquid classes (parameters) for optimal
sampling.

State of the Art Automated Liquid Handling.

admin — Sun, 15 Feb 2009 13:09:05 +0000

At Synchron we specialize in automated liquid handling. We excel in developing, building and supplying custom-made systems based around our multi-tipped XYZ robot platform with unique pump system for small and large volume pipetting. Our robot friendly exchangeable modules (building blocks streamline) and optimize your Laboratory Automation. Our products are to be found in life science, indeed all branches of generic laboratory liquid handling applications.

PCR Applications & DNA Extraction (Large Volume)

admin — Fri, 13 Feb 2009 09:57:05 +0000

Polymerase Chain reaction is a growing application in microbiological laboratories. Since DNA isolation and pcr set-up is a labor intensive job, Synchron offers you multiple solutions to automate both applications. All sorts of sample and reagent storage can be used, from eppendorf cups to microtiter plates and even 384 well plates. DNA isolation can be done by using filterplate or magnetic beads applications. Synchron also offers you the possibility to isolate DNA from blood, using our 5ml disposable tip.

Automated Inoculation

admin — Fri, 13 Feb 2009 09:33:48 +0000

Inoculation of the huge array of samples is the most laborious part of the daily culturing routine in a micro biological laboratory. Synchron Lab Automation now offers an automated solution that is designed to free up your valuable staff, enabling them to perform more productive tasks. The inoculation robot is an open system that can be used with any type of sample container and media. It is designed around the customer’s need for flexibility and throughput so that it meets all customer demands, whether, high- or low-throughput. All samples are de- and re-capped using a barcode driven LIMS connection to gather the requisite information pertaining to the sample media. The liquidized sample is then dispensed onto the agar plate and inoculated using a spiral movement. In order to prevent cross-contamination, the agar plates are also opened and resealed and the needles are cleaned thoroughly with alcohol. Bar-coded stickers ensure full traceability for every inoculated agar plate.

Serum Sample Distribution (Buffy Coat Detection)

admin — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 13:08:29 +0000

The Xperimate Quotes has been developed to facilitate an automated distribution of serum and/or plasma within the laboratory. This machine uses its unique visual detection technology to separate the serum/plasma from red blood cells after centrifugation.
Each application is a bespoke design; thereby enabling it to handle the sample racks unique to your specific analyzers. After reading the barcodes on the blood tubes used in your laboratory, the serum/plasma layer is identified and can be distributed to the analyzer racks of your choice. This is done using either an excel list or via LIMS connection.

SPECIFICATIONS:

No staff required to pipette serum/plasma
All blood tubes can be used
Total flexibility in destination racks
Capping and de-capping is possible
Unique vision technology separates blood cells from serum/plasma
Liquid detection and tracking
Barcode driven for optimal security
Handles 4-8 tubes at one time
LIMS connection possible
