Developed with meticulous attention to the needs of the entire high-content imaging workflow, the new, enabling features provided by the IN Cell Analyzer 6000 makes even the most challenging high-content assays an everyday reality.

• From investigative microscopy to automated high-content screening
• From organelles to cells, to tissues, to whole organisms
• From fixed end-point assays to extended live cell studies

paa has integrated the IN Cell 6000 into a range of workcells using the automate.it scara robot and our range of Mitsubishi factory robots.

The standard automated workcell consists of:

• GE Healthcare IN Cell 6000 imaging system
• automate.it scara robot
• barcode reader
• safety screen (optional extra required by some company safety officers)

The process:

1. get plate from input stack, read barcode, open plate reader draw
2. put plate in plate reader, run plate reader (with plate ID information)
3. when plate read complete, open plate reader draw, get plate from plate reader
4. put plate in output stack, move plate reader data to the required folder on PC or server

As with all Overlord3 applications, any of the 405 instruments can be used in a workcell. The application (left) is using the Mitsubishi factory robot.

• compact (1900mm x 800mm)
• high capacity stacks (75 lidded plates, 90 unlidded plates) on the automate.it scara robot and
• barcode reader supplied for sample tracking and method calling
• delidding station option, run instrument with lidded or unlidded microplates
• easy access to the front of the instrument
• integrate with any of the 405 instruments available on the Overlord3 driver list
• kinetic assays if required switch to racks
• workcell control with industry standards Overlord3 laboratory automation control software
• only ONE day to install

The automation system for the IN Cell 6000 instrument is:

• generate data unattended 24/7
• capacity increases walk-away time
• data integrity guaranteed
• quick and easy to install and use
• simple to upgrade with other instruments to retask workcell if required
