美国SciGene
SciGene是美国的一家公司,总部位于美国加州的旧金山,成立于2003年。该公司在成立之初就从Robbins Scientific公司获得了用来进行基因组和药物研发相关设备的生产线,从而奠定了其在基因组学和药物研发相关实验室设备的领先地位。该公司目前主要从事芯片处理和高通量化学合成的研发、制造及销售。
SciGene was founded in 2003 following the acquisition of product lines formerly sold under the Robbins Scientific brand including the widely used “blue” hybridization ovens. Since inception, SciGene has devoted its efforts to developing and manufacturing innovative instruments that simplify the sample preparation and processing of DNA microarrays.
Technology
SciGene offers a suite of instruments that use process control and method optimization to automate the sample handling used with microarray-based methods in research and diagnostics.
Automating a laboratory’s “microarray workflow” enhances the quality of data and the reliability of patient test results.
The ArrayPrep™ Target Preparation System automates the tedious process of labeling and purifying targets and loading them onto microarrays. The Mai Tai® Hybridization System works with ArrayPrep to streamline array hybridization set up and provides bubble mixing during incubation of multiple samples. The Little® Dipper Processor and NoZone® Workspace work together to automate all post-hybridization washing and drying steps within an ozone safe environment presenting arrays ready for scanning.
