The RapidPick™ is the first and only
fully automated high-throughput colony-picking workcell, that delivers
performance and precision unparalleled in the Life Science industry. The
RapidPick workcell, for the first time ever, will allow researchers to not only
automate the selection and growth of cells grown on a colony plate, but will
also retain a record and image of the specific colony and which culture
plate/well it inoculated. It enables users to establish an unbroken data path
from original colony to final result, such as tracking a clone to a specific
expressed protein. This trail is indispensable to genetic researchers. This
colony-picking workcell also has an integrated dispenser to apply fresh media to
growth plates immediately before inoculation, limiting the potential for
contamination.
