ProLink Express - Specifications
Hudson's ProLink Express is a modular, flexible automation system that permits its users to include or bypass any instrument or instrument group within any method the user may wish to run. Taking advantage of SoftLinx' extensive library of third-party instrument drivers, virtually any robot-compatible lab instrument on the market can become part of a ProLink system. ProLink is fully scalable, so that users can start with small workcells then expand them to include more instruments in a growing automation system, yet without sacrificing the usefulness and simplicity of each original smaller workcell.
Typical functional subsystems include:
n Colony-picking, sealing and cell outgrowth
n Cell pelletting, media aspiration and re-suspension
n DNA prep, purification and yield measurement
n PCR reaction preparation and running
n Transformations/transfections and cell recovery
n In vivo/in vitro protein expression
n Protein purification and measurement |
