Software for Laboratory Automation, Hybrid Scheduler and LIMS<br />
With the increasing level of lab automation investments, there is an increasing need for off-the-shelf software products complementing laboratory<br />
automation systems. In particular, products that bridge the integration and compatibility gap between different instruments. Genera Suite is<br />
one of the few software products that accomplish this.<br />
Developed using an object oriented design, the software is built upon an open and extensible architecture that allows the user to control<br />
and monitor any instrument. With the Genera Suite your lab automation system can quickly become a mix of instruments from multiple<br />
hardware vendors. You can competitively select the best-of-breed equipment to meet your unique lab automation requirements.<br />
This workshop presents the Genera Suite architecture, and explains our Supra hybrid (i.e. static and dynamic) scheduler and provide you<br />
with an overview of the DataPilot LIMS. At the end of the workshop you are able to model complex scheduling problems using our suite of<br />
instrument integration tools.<br />

High-Throughput Instruments and Reagents for Real-Time PCR and Genome<br />
Sequencing: Accuracy, Versatility, and Speed for Your Genomic Applications<br />
The 96- and 384-multiwell plate format LightCycler ® 480 System leverages the accuracy and speed of Roche’s LightCycler ® family of qPCR<br />
instruments to perform true high-throughput real-time PCR in less than 40 minutes. The LightCycler ® 480 technology drastically reduces<br />
the real-time PCR bottleneck faced by laboratories by as much as 50 percent.<br />
The Genome Sequencer 20 System is a picotechnology-based genome sequencing system, provided in partnership with 454 Life Sciences,<br />
that can sequence on average 20 million bases per 5.5-hour instrument run. The Genome Sequencer 20 System can sequence a 2-million-base<br />
genome with 10x coverage in one day – an achievement that used to take weeks.<br />
The technology used for the LightCycler ® System is licensed from Idaho Technology Inc., Salt Lake City, UT, USA.<br />

ClearSpot: A New Robotic System for Processing Microarrays in an Ozone-Safe<br />
Environment<br />
The ClearSpot Microarray Workstation uses process control and robotics to reduce the human, physical, and environmental variables that<br />
negatively effect microarray data. The workstation is composed of three modules that work together to reliably perform incubation, washing<br />
and drying of microarrays in an ozone-safe environment. Features of this unique system are presented at this workshop along with results<br />
of various system benchmark and process optimization studies.<br />
