Mirrorball Fluorescence Cytometer
EUROPE (Western and Northern)
STP LabTech Mirrorball Fluorescence Cytometer HTS Antibody Screening Discovery
The mirrorball high sensitivity cytometer represents one of the most versatile instruments available for antibody screening.
The system embodies SPTLabtech’s laser scanning technology and enables streamlined workflows for unprecedented levels of throughput.
Benefits:
No wash steps required – Sample integrity is retained; antibody interactions with low affinity and/or high dissociation rates can be detected
Retains antigen conformation – able to scan adherent cells without any manipulation
Streamline workflow – combines assays for antibody binding, specificity and cell interaction required for primary antibody screening, into a single test tube
Reduced antigen requirement – bead-based assays optimise antigen usage
Greater throughput and sensitivity – combination of mix-and-read protocols, automation-friendly software and robotics allows mirroball to deliver simply unbeatable throughput and sensitivity (up to 150,000 samples a day)
Multiplexing – triple laser excitation and 5 colour fluorescence detection enable analysis of multiple antigens or cell types simultaneously
Applications:
Screening tool for all stages of the antibody discovery process from primary screening, clone selection and affinity maturation
Protocols have been set up for the most common antibody species including whole IgG, scFV and Fab
Cell-based assays:
allows screening of antigens in their natural conformation preserves target epitopes improves productivity by delivering quality screening hits
