Innopsys has the pleasure of announcing the release of its newest microarray scanner, the InnoScan 910, also available in an autoloader version. With its new detection system, the InnoScan 910 has the highest resolution and reading speed on the market. Very simply of use and two-color reading quality, it is the ideal tool for reading current and future high-density microarrays.

Characterized by its simplicity of use, competitive price and superior image quality, the InnoScan 910 is the ideal tool for scanning most high density microarrays currently available on the market. Features include:

High resolution: InnoScan 910 is a high resolution 2-colour fluorescence scanner. It is capable of reading microarrays at a very high image quality with a resolution of 1µm/pixel.
Speed: Capable of simultaneously reading 2 detection channels in 3.55 minutes (at 10µm/pixel maximum reading area); InnoScan 910 is the fastest scanner on the market with a sweep speed which adjustable from 10 to 35 lines/second.
Reliable and traceable results: With a barcode reader, InnoScan 910 provides accurate control of acquired images. InnoScan 910 is supplied with a validation slide and proprietary Mapix software which verifies scanner performance.

Given the size of the images obtained (5.74 GB to read an entire slide at 1 µm resolution), Mapix image analysis software has been specially designed to handle large files.

The InnoScan 910 is suitable for a range of applications in functional genomics, transcripomics and proteomics.

Advanced High Resolution 2-colour Fluorescence Microarray Scanner: InnoScan 910

Innopsys

Performance, Resolution, Speed. With its new detection system, the InnoScan 910 has the highest resolution and reading speed on the market. This user-friendly, two-color scanner is the ideal tool for reading current and future high-density microarrays.With outstanding sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio derived from its highly regarded photometric properties, the InnoScan 910 is a confocal detection scanner fitted with 2 extremely sensitive analog PMTs that are linear over the range of 0.1 to 100% and is capable of detecting from 0 to 1% of gain with a step of 0.01%. The operator can adjust the system to optimize signals for saturation level and equilibration of the 2 channels. Thanks to XDR mode (Extended Dynamic Range), The InnoScan 910 has a dynamic range over 106 and is thus capable of detecting the lowest signals while avoiding saturation. The real-time autofocus system eliminates effects of substrate distortion ensuring that data detection is entirely uniform across the entire reading area.Features: Two excitation channels of 532nm and 635nm Exceptional image quality, resolution 1 µm/pixel Fast - simultaneous 2-channel detection in 3.55 minutes at 10µm/pixel. The InnoScan 910 is the fastest scanner on the market with a sweep speed which is adjustable from 10 to 35 lines/second. Reliable and robust design; created for large image file handling Traceability through validation slide and barcodes Extracts and handles maximum data from huge images with dedicated software, Mapix. Ultra-simple operation, run after a few clicks Excellent performance / price ratio
