CompacT
SelecT™ is an automated cell
culture and assay- ready plating system
designed to meet the needs of medium throughput
laboratories. It has the capabilities of
TAP’s established SelecT cell culture
system but with a lower capacity and smaller
footprint.
CompacT SelecT grows cells
from multiple cell lines in T-flasks for
cell line maintenance and expansion. It
can generate assay-ready plates on demand
for cell-based screening and assay development.
Over 10 systems are in use
in laboratories across the world - including
5 used for stem cell
related research applications.
Flasks
are automatically loaded and
retrieved from the incubator
which is monitored for temperature
and CO2
The
harvested contents of several
flasks
are pooled and then will be
poured
into a new flask.
Expansion and maintenance of multiple
cell lines
Sub culturing
Expanding cell numbers through the
seeding of a number of flasks
Transient transfection
Harvesting and plating of cells for
assays and screening
Harvesting of cells in flasks for
off-line processing
Incubation of up to 90 T 175 format
flasks and 210 plates
Cell counting and viability measurement
Processing of single, Triple and 10
layer (HYPERFlask) flasks
Plating into 96 and 384-well plates
A number of optional upgrades
are available for CompacT SelecT, including
HYPERFlask processing
and advanced plating
routines using ‘Transwell’ type
plates.
