Acumen for Screening 

Acumen eX3's cytometric analysis offer the user key benefits for screening: 

  • High throughput screening in all plate formats (average time: 10 minutes for scan and analysis) 
  • A 1536-well plate is scanned in the same amount of time as a 96-well plate so there is no slowing of plate read times with assay miniaturisation. 
  • Small data file sizes, so there is no server requirement or IT overhead.
  • Easy robotic integration for any throughput - from stand-alone operation, through self-maintained workstation to fully integrated screening platform

With an achievable throughput of over 300,000 wells/day (in 1536-well format), and file sizes equating to a manageable 170Mb/day, the Acumen eX3 has become an enabling platform for many organisations.
