Avoiding the bottleneck with QPatch AutomationTuesday, 27 September 2011 at 15:15  Add to Calendar ▼2011-09-27 15:15:002011-09-27 16:15:00Europe/LondonAvoiding the bottleneck with QPatch AutomationIon Channel Targets in San FranciscoSan FranciscoSELECTBIOenquiries@selectbiosciences.comElectrophysiological ion channel research is becoming competitive with classical high throughput means of discovery. Machine operation and data analysis have become the new bottlenecks. The QPatch HTX, one of the highly successful automated patch clamp systems, employs state of the art automation all through, from data acquisition to data analysis, speeding the time it takes from cell to IC50. The QPatch’s highly sophisticated analysis software starts analyzing data, based on pre-set conditions, and compiles results in a report format that can be automatically emailed to the user. This automation can be further deployed in filtering and re-organizing applied assays to complete or replace any previously failed data points. As a result, a properly setup assay and analysis scheme can dramatically decrease one of the final bottlenecks in early ion channel research and raise automated patch clamp throughput to new levels. |
