Cytation™3 Wins MipTec New Product Innovation Award

Date: 9.10.2013 

October 3, 2013, WINOOSKI VT, USA — BioTek’s Cytation™3 Cell Imaging Multi-Mode Reader was recently honored with the first annual New Product Innovation Award, given by MipTec organizers at the 2013 MipTec Conference & Exhibition in Basel, Switzerland. Cytation3 was one of three winning products announced at the exhibition on September 25, 2013.

Cytation3 combines automated digital microscopy and conventional microplate multi-mode detection to provide both rich phenotypic and well-based quantitative analyses in a streamlined workflow. This unique, patent pending design is ideal for both cell-based and biochemical assays, and its modular architecture allows users to select the modes they need now, and easily upgrade as their needs evolve.

The imaging mode includes multi-channel wide-field fluorescence and brightfield formats, using high-intensity LED light sources and onboard filter cubes. Automated XY stage, autofocus and autoexposure increase imaging throughput compared to manual microscopy systems. Multi-mode detection uses patented Hybrid Technology™, which combines high sensitivity filter-based detection and flexible monochromator-based detection for unmatched assay versatility now and in the future. Additionally, Cytation3 offers temperature control up to 45 °C, gas control and variable shaking to enhance live cell-based assay efficiency.

BioTek Instruments, Inc., headquartered in Winooski, VT, USA, is a worldwide leader in the design, manufacture, and sale of microplate instrumentation and software. These technologies are used to aid life science research, facilitate drug discovery, provide rapid and cost-effective analysis, and enable sensitive, accurate quantification of molecules across diverse applications.
