The Freedom EVOware Normalization Wizard is a software component that efficiently automates pipetting steps for the quantitation and normalization of nucleic acid samples. Samples of varying concentration are diluted to a uniform concentration across the entire microplate. Using the Normalization Wizard as part of the Freedom EVOware software package enables Freedom EVO workstations to perform pipetting and microplate handling…

Freedom EVOware Sample Tracking makes it easier than ever to track your samples. Simply register the sample you wish to track, and choose from a variety of standard plate- and sample-based reports for process security during your applications. Full Magellan™ connectivity integrates Tecan microplate reader data and comprehensive import and export functions, simplifying LIMS connectivity. Advantages of Freedom EVOware Sample Tra…

The Pressure Monitored Pipetting (PMP) tool is an additional safety option, specifically validated for clinical applications using serum and/or aqueous solutions. Using the PMP, pipetting quality is analyzed online for both aspiration and dispensations. Also faults including clots, air aspiration, not dispensed samples or system leakage can be detected.

DynamicFill Technology enables the aspirating and dispensing of liquids to and from the worktable in volumes of 0.5 µl to 50 ml and higher. The user can easily switch between large volume dispensing, using the pump, and standard dispensing, using the dilutors. An optional selector valve that allows up to six different reagents to be connected to the pump for dispensing can also be integrated. The module is suitable for a wide…

The 8 Plus 1 Access is an eight-channel liquid handling arm for the Freedom EVO 75 robotic workstation that uses disposable tips. It is designed to bring speed to your reagent distribution, serial dilution, plate reformatting and plate replication tasks. This unique arm combines the benefits of two tools in one; it has the ability to pipette across a microplate with eight tips simultaneously, and can also access individual s…

TouchTools offers a fully customizable user interface for Freedom EVO® workstations, delivering greater flexibility for instrument programmers and a structured, user-friendly environment for operators.

The Common Notification System (CNS) allows the user to monitor an instrument’s status through any networked computer or mobile device with a web browser, thereby increasing walkaway time and process security. The status of the system is immediately visible and the user can easily see if any interaction is needed. Remote monitoring can be particularly useful if the instrument is in a clean room, biosafety cabinet or cold room…

The Vericheck ddPCR HEK293 Residual DNA Quantification Kit, with a novel ddPCR assay, has been designed to quantify residual HEK293 DNA in biotherapeutics with high specificity and reproducibility, without the need for reference curves.

Lentiviruses are commonly used as viral vectors in cell and gene therapy production, delivering and steadily integrating desired genes into the genome of the host cell. However, they may also present health hazards to humans due to integration-mediated transformation and the creation of a RCL that can infect nontarget cells. While the current regulatory guidelines recommend a cell culture–based method for RCL testing, it is cu…

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is commonly used as a viral vector in cell and gene therapy production, but there is a risk of it becoming a replication competent virus (RCV) during the production process, especially in the presence of a helper virus, which can raise safety concerns. While the guidelines recommend a cell culture–based method for RCAAV testing, it is cumbersome and takes 30–45 days from sample to results. Verichec…
