New platform integrates yeast-based synthetic biology and robotics to streamline antibody discovery, ‘eliminating lengthy steps and significantly reducing costs’ compared to traditional outsourcing
Opentrons Labworks, a lab automation company with more than 10,000 robotic systems deployed, and Neochromosome, its subsidiary specializing in products unlocked through genome-scale cell engineering, have unveiled the Opentrons Flex neoSwitch Workstation powered by the Neochromosome neoSwitch platform for in-house antibody discovery.
The Workstation enables labs to automate critical steps of the neoSwitch antibody discovery workflow, including high throughput purification of binders for rapid characterization.
By combining the ease-of-use of the Flex workstation with the turnkey neoSwitch platform, it is now straightforward to onboard yeast-based antibody discovery and unlock cost and time savings up to ten-fold relative to conventional outsourcing.
