Summary:
Tecan is collaboratingwith Arizona State University (ASU) to develop the Integrated Biodosimetry System, a prototype robotic system for rapid, high throughput screening to measure an individual’s level of exposure to radiation in the event of a radiological or nuclear incident.
Not only it will be a system for the effective response to a nuclear or radiological event that could affect a large population, but the high throughout platform can also be used to advance genomics testing and other routine laboratory procedures that measure gene expression levels.
The research team will work with Tecan on building this comprehensive high throughput system, allowing scientists to analyze blood samples from up to 2,000 people per day, per instrument.
