Microarray solutions
Our unique microarray printing technology
Over two decades ago, we pioneered the first generation microarray printer in response to the demands of the Human Genome Project, filling a crucial gap in available technology. Since then, we've relentlessly refined and expanded this platform, transforming it into a truly unparalleled solution.
Today, our advanced microarray printing technology stands out for its ability to deliver precision, high throughput, and flexibility, setting a new standard in microarray printing.
Unmatched capacity and flexibility
Our proprietary technology can dramatically boost throughput, for example: our high-speed printhead can dispense up to 32 unique samples on every pass above your substrates, precisely depositing the 32 samples at a rate of 238 spots per second. Our technology offers these features:
