Clinical Platforms

BioGenex is a pioneer in the design, development and manufacturing of advanced systems for automation of cell and tissue-based staining. To accommodate diverse laboratory needs, we offer three different clinical automation platforms for in-vitro diagnostic applications. These platforms support LIMS connectivity, meet globally accepted quality standards (ISO13485:2003 & ISO9001:2008) and are approved for IVD use in the US by the FDA, and in Europe with CE marking.

1. Xmatrx® Automated Staining Systems (ELITE, ULTRA*):

The Xmatrx systems offer standardized processes from baking through final glass cover slip in three simple steps: load, click and view. These systems are FDA approved for In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) applications including: immuno-histochemistry (IHC), in situ hybridization (ISH), co-detection and special staining. The Xmatrx systems are equipped with eXACT™ Temperature Control active heating and cooling units on every slide, RFID and Barcode enabled technologies, disposable pipette tips to prevent cross-contamination of reagents and an on-board cover slipping function.

Features & Benefits

• 40 independent protocols performed simultaneously
• Fully Automated System from Microtome to Microscope, including Baking, Dewaxing and Antigen Retrieval
• eXACT™ Temperature Control on Every Slide (RT-105^oC)
• RFID tagged reagent vials together with Barcoded slides, eliminates human errors
• Wide range of reagent dispense volumes: 10 μL to 850 μL
• BioGenex’s proprietary coverslip mechanism
• Over 400+ optimized protocols with ready to use reagents in RFID tagged vials
• LIMS - enabled data tracking and management
• Liquid level sensor for accurate reagent dispensing
• Allows use of 3rd party antibodies

2. i6000™ Diagnostics Automated Staining Systems:

The i6000 Elite Dx is a high-throughput system for IHC and Special Staining of clinical samples in molecular pathology laboratories. The i6000 has a staining capacity of 200 slides in 8 hours (60 slides in 3 hours). The system is supplied together with the EZ-Retriever® for Microwave-based Dewaxing and Antigen Retrieval, and the i500 Plus LIMS enabled, Barcode Label Printer. The i6000 has a predictable cost structure and short learning curve to enhance cross training and personnel rotation. We have optimized more than 400 protocols assuring clean, intense and reproducible staining results.

Features & Benefits

• High capacity: 60 slides and 53 antibodies per run. 200 slides in 8 hours
• Works seamlessly with EZ-Retriever® for Eco-friendly De-waxing, Rehydration and Antigen Retrieval
• Barcoded slides and reagent vials to minimize hands-on time and data entry errors
• Wide range of reagent dispense volumes: 100 μL to 900 μL
• Over 400 optimized protocols with ready to use reagents in barcoded vials
• LIMS - enabled data tracking and management
• Liquid level sensor for accurate reagent dispensing
• Allows use of 3rd party antibodies
