Description

Streamline your colony selection and picking with QPix® XE , a solution that takes your microbial colony selection and picking to the next level. Although smaller than other colony pickers on the market, don't let its size fool you – it doesn't compromise on results. The QPix XE streamlines your colony picking process, allowing you to focus on discovery and not repetitive, error-prone tasks. The easy-to-use interface, coupled with its compact design, ensures that you can work in a space-efficient environment without sacrificing accuracy. Automatic storage and sample tracking ensure the integrity of your data, so you can trust your results.

Key Benefits:

  • Simple integration - We can tailor and deploy the integration, or provide an open API and software support for you, so you can have a fully automated work cell in no time
  • Scalable automation - As your workflow changes and adapts, our systems scale with you into an automated work cell for future throughput growth or walk-away time
  • Compact size - Streamline colony selection so scientists can focus on discovery instead of repetitive, error-prone tasks – without taking up valuable lab space

Key Features:

  • Easy-to-use software - The intuitive, process-driven software interface guides users through setting up microbial colony-picking runs where precision robotics pick the right colonies – every single time
  • High-picking efficiency - With advanced imaging and robotic capabilities, QPix XE has a high-picking efficiency of up to 1500 colonies per hour. It accurately and efficiently picks individual colonies from a wide range of sample types, including bacteria, yeast, and fungi
  • Screen and pick colonies - Colonies are screened and identified based on desirable morphological or spectral characteristics, including size, proximity, roundness, and fluorescence intensity
  • Automatic tracking – QPix XE's automatic storage and sample tracking ensure the integrity of your data. By providing users with a complete audit trail and sample tracking, you can be sure that your data is never lost
