LeadStream – Galileo Integration Yields a Complete Process and Results Management<br />

Solution for ADME/Tox<br />

LeadStream is a fully integrated ADME/Tox screening solution, that combines role-specific automation for sample distribution and preparation,<br />

integrated LC/MS for analysis, and orchestration software for coordination of laboratory workflow. A LeadStream implementation is able<br />

to simplify the entire testing process from request to result, including end-to-end data tracking, automated data reduction and reporting.<br />

Recently LeadStream has been integrated with Galileo, a purpose built ADME/Tox LIMS designed to enhance the manual process of data<br />

analysis, review and approval. The combined workflow of these two products provides a significant improvement in data quality, processing<br />

time, and results reporting for a range of Tier 1 and Tier 2 ADME/Tox Screens.<br />

Using Acoustic Droplet Ejection for Aqueous Samples – The Transfer of Bovine Serum<br />

Albumin Solutions and the Effect of Salt Concentrations<br />

We show the application of acoustic droplet ejection (ADE) to the transfer of protein solutions. Effects of buffer concentrations to ADE are<br />

measured and discussed. Precision and accuracy of transferring 5-100nL fluorescein-doped bovine serum albumin (BSA) droplets are<br />

measured with fluorescence. We show the effects on ADE of varying concentrations of different typical biological additives that are known to<br />

change viscosity and surface tension. We illustrate that ADE is only mildly affected by these changes in fluid viscosity and surface tension.<br />

The ability to precisely place sample droplets of protein solution on a solid surface or in a well significantly expands potential applications.<br />

We will show examples of arrays of nanoliter droplets of protein solutions on surfaces.<br />
