CellWriter™ 480

The CellWriter 480 is a robotic workstation that processes 48 slides per batch for both Karyotyping and FISH. CellWriter automates the dropping process to deliver quality spread interphase and metaphase nuclei for analysis.

Integrating BioDot’s nanoliter dispenser (BioJet™) with exquisite temperature and humidity control produces a highly efficient system that produces quality slides.

BioDot further simplifies the workflow with a newly-patented slide technology. CellWriter Slides™ enable multiplexed FISH assays and eliminate the need for rubber cement when preparing for hybridization.
