Dr. Claude Dufresne received his PhD in Organic Chemistry from the University of Alberta in 1986. After a postdoc at the Cancer Research Institute of Arizona State University, he joined Merck Research Laboratories in 1988. Most of his career at Merck involved the application of automation technologies in support of screening and pharmacology research. He joined SCIENION in 2011 with a main focus on expanding its technology portfolio.

A number of diagnostic, screening or sensor devices require the interaction of clinical or environmental samples with relevant biological agents. These agents are an integral part of the microfluidic, silicon or paper devices that were designed for the intended test. We will illustrate how one can apply sub-nanoliter amounts of oligos, proteins, glycans, as well as many chemical reagents, precisely and accurately onto various targets and their internal structures. Our glass-based piezo-electric non-contact dispensing technology has been optimized for over 12 years, and is at the core of the sciFLEXARRAYER product line. It allows for the dispensing of droplets as small as 50 pl within 5 um of a desired location. This is possible using minimal sample aspiration volumes as low as 3 ul. The technology as implemented is mild enough to dispense live cells. In addition, we will show how this has been scaled up to manufacturing levels.
