TTP LabTech supplies laboratory-scale instrumentation <strong>and</strong> aut<strong>omation</strong> <strong>for</strong> the healthcare,<br />
biotech <strong>and</strong> pharmaceutical sectors. Its products include: comPOUND, a high-density,<br />
modular <strong>and</strong> scalable storage system, refrigerated to -20˚C; Mosquito, a low volume<br />
(50–1200nl) pipettor which uses disposable pipettes <strong>for</strong> zero cross-contamination; <strong>and</strong><br />
Acumen Explorer, a laser-based fl uorescent microplate cytometer providing fast, multiparameter<br />
analysis <strong>for</strong> cell-based assays.<br />
Booth 938 (10 x 10)<br />
Union Biometrica provides automated systems <strong>for</strong> sorting/dispensing large (40–1,500<br />
microns) beads, such as those used in on-bead combinatorial assays, to facilitate<br />
experiment design <strong>for</strong> HTS compound screening <strong>and</strong> assay development. Based on size,<br />
optical density, <strong>and</strong> fl uorescent characteristics, COPAS instruments sort target beads<br />
into multiwell plates using a non-destructive sorting mechanism. This technology is also<br />
utilized <strong>for</strong> sorting of viable large cells, cellular aggregates, <strong>and</strong> small model organisms<br />
(C.elegans, Drosophila, zebrafi sh).<br />
