OpenArray


Imagine performing more than 3,000 assays simultaneously. Imagine generating hundreds of thousands of data points every day. With OpenArray®, it’s not just a possibility, it’s a proven fact.

OpenArray represents a major breakthrough for life science researchers, enabling massively parallel, high quality nanoliter assays. It’s ideal for low-volume solution-phase reactions including analysis of genetic, genomic, biochemical, and cellular samples.

Want to find out more? Just follow the links and see how you can put OpenArray technology to work for you.


The OpenArray® Real-Time qPCR System enables nearly three thousand real-time qPCR assays to be run on a single OpenArray plate. Plates are cycled and imaged using the OpenArray NT Cycler. Researchers can test one to 48 different samples against a wide array of assays. The system enables flexibility in experimental design in many research areas:

    * Quantitative expression analysis
    * Pathogen detection
    * Methylation studies
    * Pathway analysis
    * Infectious disease studies
    * Forensics
    * Genetic identification

OpenArray® SYBR® Real-Time qPCR

OpenArray® Real-Time qPCR System enables nearly three thousand real-time qPCR assays to be run on a single OpenArray plate. The marriage of the OpenArray technology with the popular SYBR® Green chemistry provides researchers with a high density format that not only saves time but also saves money.  With a highly flexible format and nanoliter scale, the OpenArray platform allows for easy adjustment of sample and assay numbers, and enables you to generate more than 24,000 real-time qPCR data points per day, increasing sample throughput while significantly decreasing time and cost.
  • Fast-Each run on the OpenArray system cycles and images more than 9,000 reactions much higher throughput than plate-based systems. What’s more, in a typical 8-hour workday, one OpenArray system performs multiple runs, helping you zip through your studies.
  • Flexible-You need to validate microarray results anyway. Now you can use one system for expression profiling, biomarker identification, and screening studies. Plus, the flexible format of the OpenArray system allows you to customize your own gene panel screen 100s of assays or 100s of samples, it’s your choice.
  • Economical-Only 33nL per reaction! That is 150-fold less than the typical 384-well plate, which allows you to conserve precious sample and reagents. And the system is operated by a single user. That adds up to significant labor and material savings.

BioGene Thermal Cycler Systems





Patent pending Integrated Heating Technology (IHT) forms the basis of this system. It has long been recognised that intra-sample variations caused by thermal gradients within metal block or air-heating systems causes differences in the final product (quantity and quality). IHT uses the concept of directly heating the vessel containing the reaction mix and in addition having a single, infrared temperature sensor for each vessel to ensure truly independent thermal control. Direct heating also has a significant effect on thermal transfer rates as does the ‘capillary’ design of the reaction vessel (allows for a high surface to volume ratio) both leading to Ultra-Rapid thermal cycling. High throughput, cleaner reaction products and the ability to run reactions with different thermal profiles are significant advantages of this technology e.g. running gradients for process optimisation, multiple different tests on the same sample in diagnostic applications where time to report results is critical and high throughput screening.

InSyte uses leading edge technology to ensure that the thermal performance is matched by fast, sensitive optics. A compact, high lifetime (10,000 hour) solid-state laser provides an intense, well-collimated pure light source at 473 nm (compatible with all standard chemistries, dyes and dye sets). A multichannel PMT collects all emitted wavelengths between 520 and 720 nm-the system is not constrained by use of filter sets to detect fixed bands of emitted fluorescence. This allows the user to ‘see the full picture’! High scan rates (full plate read every 3 seconds) provide good data sets for use in subsequent analysis.

Real-Time PCR Cycler "DT-322"

Equipment manufactured by "DNA-Technology" corporation

http://www.dna-technology.com/catalog/ob_dt322_en.shtml




Real-Time PCR Cycler "DT-322" is intended for a carrying out of polimerase chain reaction (PCR) with a detection of an accumulation of PCR products during an amplification (real -Time PCR). DT-322 allows to carry out the qualitative and quantitative PCR analysis excepting a stage of the electrophoresis of PCR products in an agarose gel. The device is designed for simultaneous analysis of up to 32 samples. A thermocycler and an optical system of a fluorescence detection are united in this device. All data of the last amplification are recording into a private memory of the PCR Cycler and can be read out even after a current interruption occurred during an amplification. After a restoring of a power supply the amplification program will be continued, and the moment of interruption, its duration and a block temperature in the moment of interruption will be recorded. A turning off or a hanging of external computer does not result in PCR termination since the process control is managed by the private memory of the device that does not depend on a computer.
