Solar
is a complete liquid inventory management system
for biological sample management. It fully integrates
TAP’s established storage and liquid handling
technologies and is the ideal solution for biological
repository managers seeking to make a step change
in their productivity. |

- High density storage, retrieval and processing
of individually barcoded samples (including
cherry picking)
- Generation of any type of output plate eg
compressions, expansions, mixtures
- Environmental control system to protect samples,
including
-20°C and relative humidity control
- Liquid transfers down to tens of nanolitres
- Controlled thawing of retrieved samples
- Collation and labelling of completed orders
- Plate piercing and sealing
- Tube capping and decapping
- Full process tracking and automatic order
fulfilment

The system also controls
information exchange with LIMS systems, via TAP’s
integrated sample management software, Concerto,
eliminating the need for additional purchases or
internal system development. The software can control
not only the operation of the Solar but also peripheral
processes and external inventory, including manual
stores and third party workstations. |
 |
| |
- Full audit trails and traceability for each
sample to ensure regulatory compliance requirements
are met
- Maintained quality and integrity of valuable
biological samples stored for long periods via
controlled environment
- Elimination of cross contamination during
preparation of DNA assay plates
- Consistent, high quality plate production
with tight CVs (<5%)
- Ability to handle a large range of biologically
inert plates and tubes
- Consolidation of biological inventory maximising
storage space
- Simple upgrade path allowing future additions
to the system within existing architecture
|

Solar offers the ideal
storage conditions for samples in any format along
with process control software that ensures that
GxP requirements are met and that the logistics
of production-scale sample processing run smoothly.
