The Array Tape™ platform is extremely flexible. With a modular design and multiple processing capabilities, a single Nexar® (liquid handler) and Araya® (fluorescence scanning) instrument will allow you meet the demands of ever-changing assay requirements and throughput goals.

Additional applications for Array Tape™ include virtually any high throughput chemistry or process currently using microplate technology. For example, AlphaLISA, developed by PerkinElmer, performs robustly in the Array Tape™ platform.

The Array Tape™ platform has been optimized for high throughput genotyping, where many thousands of samples are tested on a few hundred or less SNPs. Any single-step, homogeneous, fluorescence-based, closed-tube assay may be run in Array Tape™. These assays often incorporate PCR amplification. Commonly used SNP chemistries optimized for Array Tape™ include end-point TaqMan™, Invader Plus™ and KASPar™. Molecular beacons and Scorpions are also excellent applications for the Array Tape™ platform. Learn more about high throughput SNP Genotyping.
