Deerac Fluidics, Labcyte and Promega workshop at Lab Automation

8 Jan 2007

Deerac Fluidics, Labcyte and Promega are joint sponsors of a special workshop that will take place during Lab Automation. The workshop will be held on Tuesday, January 30th in room ‘Smoketree DE’ at the Palm Springs Convention Center from 12:30 – 2:00 pm. The Workshop title is Miniaturization of GPCR assays – a practical approach. Lunch will be served at this event.

Agenda:

  • 12:30PM-1:00PM - Novel cAMP-Glo™ Assay for GPCR Studies in 1536 Format
    Sarah Shultz, MS, Integrated Solutions & Engineering, Promega
  • 1:00PM-1:30PM - GPCR Agonists and Antagonists Screening Using Echo™ Acoustic Liquid Handler Jean Shieh, Applications Specialist, Labcyte
  • 1:30PM-2:00PM - Low-Volume, High-Precision Dispensing for the HTS Environment
    Aoife Gallagher, PhD, Product and Applications Manager, Deerac Fluidics

Promega, Labcyte, and Deerac Fluidics will present an integrated solution for G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling studies in 1536-well plate format. Promega’s cAMP-Glo™ Assay monitors cAMP levels in cells in response to the effect of ligands on GPCRs. Therefore, the assay can be used to screen for agonist or antagonist test compounds. The attendee will learn about the features of the cAMP-Glo™ assay and see representative data. The Labcyte® Echo™ 555 acoustic nanoliter liquid handler, and the Deerac Fluidics™ Equator™ HTS reagent dispenser are also described for drug discovery applications.
