Laboratories striving for precision and efficiency in infectious disease research can now rely on Takara Bio USA, Inc.’s SmartChip ND™ Real-Time PCR System. This high-throughput solution revolutionizes pathogen detection by combining customizable workflows with nanoliter-scale reactions, saving time, effort, and resources.
Efficiency that reduces workload
The SmartChip ND system automates critical steps, cutting direct hands-on time to under 30 minutes per run. With a three-hour turnaround from sample to data, lab managers can optimize their team’s productivity while reducing reagent costs through nanoliter-scale reactions.
Benefits for laboratory managers
- Time-saving automation: Streamlined workflows with minimal manual intervention.
- Cost-efficient operations: Reduced reagent use with nanoliter reactions.
- Scalability: Accommodates up to 768 samples or 384 targets per sample in one run.
- Customizable workflows: Flexible assay designs meet diverse research requirements.
- High reproducibility: Consistent results with minimized variability.
A reliable partner in pathogen research
The system’s exceptional sensitivity and specificity make it ideal for detecting pathogens in applications such as urinary tract, sexually transmitted, and wound infections. Researchers and lab managers alike will benefit from its ability to process large sample volumes with precision and speed.
Showcased at AMP 2024
Takara Bio will present the SmartChip ND System at the Association for Molecular Pathology 2024 Annual Meeting in Vancouver. Lab managers attending the event can learn about its capabilities through a spotlight talk and poster session.
