The SimCell Robotics System takes high-throughput cell culture automation to a new level. With the capacity to handle up to 210 SimCell MicroBioreactor Arrays (MBA), the system can manage up to 1,260 MicroBioreactors simultaneously. This high capacity can deliver more process characterization information with greater statistical power, faster and more cost-effectively than conventional approaches using benchtop bioreactors or shake flasks.
The SimCell Robotics System leverages advanced, software-controlled robotics technology to automate the entire cell culture cycle:
Powerful automation benefits
A true breakthrough in cell culture automation, the SimCell Robotics System offers the power to:
- Automate experiment processes, including inoculating, feeding and sampling hundreds of SimCell MicroBioreactors
- Monitor and control experiment parameters-such as cell density, pH and dissolved oxygen-for each MBA chamber
- Control environmental incubation conditions, temperature, process gas mixtures, and mixing
- Automate sampling to capture key metrics, such as product quality and quantity, productivity, nutrient and metabolite profiles
- Incubators-accommodate up to 42 MBAs per incubator
- Dispensing Module-automates inoculation/dilution, feed addition, and pH adjustment
- Sampling Module-automates sampling for a range of assays
- Sensing Module-automates non-invasive sensing of pH, dissolved oxygen and cell density
- Robotic Arm-automates loading/unloading and cycling of MBAs through CAS modules
Do the math
1 MBA x 6 chambers x up to 210 MBAs per SimCell System = up to 1,260 simultaneous cell cultures
