QPix® XE: A compact, cost-effective, high-throughput microbial colony picker for synthetic biology workflows

In this application note, we demonstrate that the QPix XE can increase bacterial colony picking efficiency greater than ten-fold per hour compared to manual picking, greatly reducing FTE hours. The QPix XE can be incorporated into any automatic platform with ambient plate hotels, robotic arms, automated incubators (shaking and static), liquid handlers, on dec thermocyclers, centrifuges, peelers and sealers, capper/decapper, shakers, heaters, and plate readers for an end-to-end high throughput molecular cloning workflow seen in synthetic biology applications.

Benefits:

The QPix XE offers over ten-fold increased efficiency in bacterial colony picking.
With its versatile design, the QPix XE can accommodate multiple input formats and perform diverse replication methods and screenings.
Despite its high throughput, the QPix XE is compact and more cost-effective than its predecessors.
