Proven Liquid Handling for Reliable Molecular Biology Processes

Solutions that combine reliable nucleic acid purification processes with precise low volume pipetting capacity are rarely available.

As the first company with a 384-tip simultaneous pipetting head, CyBio established a benchmark for automated high throughput screening devices in 384- and 1536-well formats. Today, CyBio still maintains the gold standard for automated pipettors.

Now CyBio transfers its high-grade expertise in handling small volumes by introducing the CyBi^®-GeneRobots, a product family of functionally designed systems to automate applications in molecular biology. Carefully designed instrument details allow effective automation of time consuming and strenuous laboratory procedures.

At Biotechnica 2007 in Hannover, Germany CyBio presents 3 products of the CyBi^®-GeneRobots line at their booth number 16 in hall 8.

The CyBi^®-DiluSpro is an 8 channel pipettor perfectly suited for many molecular biology applications. Through the high precision over the entire pipetting range of 0.5 µL -250 µL, the CyBi^®-DiluSpro is the optimal choice for PCR set & clean up, as well as sequencing reaction set & clean up. The functional design enables easy integration to laminar flowboxes and the opportunity to change tips during the process avoids cross-contamination. The flexible carriage design accommodates a wide range of reagents and samples. With the help of the user-friendly CyBio^® Composer software, application specific protocols can be quickly programmed and run.

The CyBi^®-Well vario is a multi-channel pipettor, perfectly suited for nucleic acid transfer applications in the 96-, 384-, and 1536 well format, such as high throughput siRNA screenings. Exchangeable pipetting heads covering a volume from 25 nL up to 250 µL provide flexibility from the downscaling of reaction volumes to throughput increases. Sterile and PCR-certified disposable tips promise highly reliable results without any cross-contamination. CyBio’s core pipetting technologies enable gentle cell handling as well as rapid nucleic acid transfer protocols on the same instrument.

The CyBi^®-RoboSpense is an all-purpose pipetting robot with 4 or 8 individually addressable channels, ideal for nucleic acid purification, processing and analysis applications. The system works with tubes and plates both in the 96 and 384-well format, delivering precise, highly reproducible results, right from the start. The CyBi^®-RoboSpense is designed for fully automated sample purification and reaction set & clean up tasks. It is ideal for all labs that are looking for a versatile system that automates a wide variety of molecular biology applications.
