S2GP: Axio Scan 7 (Slide Scanner)

What is it?
Automated, high-performance PCR/qPCR system that uses microfluidics technology to process samples at nanoliter-scale volumes for gene expression, genotyping, sample identification, copy number variation analysis and digital PCR.

Manufacturer: Fluidigm

Model Name: Biomark HD

Applications:

Instrument Overview: With the Biomark" HD system, you get reliable production-scale throughput and exquisite single-cell sensitivity, with a wide variety of sample types and chemistry choices to accommodate the most genomic applications. Fluidigm integrated fluidic circuits (IFCs) empower life science research by automating PC reactions in nanoliter volumes. This means using less sample and reagent, and a single microfluidic device, to achieve the high-quality, consistent results your work depends on.
