Acumen EX3 speeds up cytotoxicity profiling

TTP Labtech has brought out high-throughput platform solutions for the study of cytotoxicity.

The platforms use the Acumen EX3 fluorescence microplate cytometer and many Invitrogen solutions for toxicity profiling.

Use is growing of cellular-based assays when determining drug on- and off-target effects.

The Acumen EX3 laser-scanning cytometer is an ultra-high throughput system for cell-based screening that offers enhanced multiplexing capability to maximise data content and the rapid generation of robust data sets when deployed with ready-to-use Molecular Probes kits and reagents from Invitrogen.

These Molecular Probes high-content screening products can be used to analyse many cytotoxic phenomena, including: cell viability, DNA damage and cell-cycle processes such as mitosis.

The strength of the Acumen EX3 platform combined with these robust Invitrogen high-content screening (HCS) products enables the high-throughput analysis of a variety of toxicity parameters.
