Automation systems
As with many fields, making an impact in the life sciences often requires scalability. As technologies evolve and mature, there is typically a demand for high-throughput platforms that maximize precision and reproducibility while reducing hands-on time and providing assay flexibility. We are proud to offer complete automation solutions that work hand-in-hand with our exceptional kits and reagents to enable high-throughput, user-friendly workflows for both discovery and clinical applications.
Unlock answers with nanoscale PCR
Takara Bio's SmartChip ND Real-Time PCR System allows you to flexibly design your own panels, keep costs low, and obtain results in under 3 hr. Sample dispensing and reaction mix distribution is automated for up to 5,184 reactions per chip. Customizable configurations allow 12 to 384 assays to be processed at a time, depending on the number of targets in the panel. The system also simplifies your workflow with full end-to-end software to carry out automated dispensing and qPCR analysis.

Speed, control, confidence
The emergence of NGS-based methods for single-cell analysis has created a demand for automation systems that can simultaneously process many single cells regardless of cell type or size, and that provide high-quality data with high sensitivity and reproducibility. Our ICELL8 cx Single-Cell System is an automated platform for single-cell analysis that utilizes a simple dilution method with a large aperture dispenser for cell isolation, enabling imaging, selection, and characterization of many types of cells in a small amount of time.
