Read the Story

"Challenging liquid handling tasks easy to achieve"

We at Ionovation use the CyBio FeliX for two unusual applications: as a media supply for an organ-on-chip system and for an lipid bilayer electrophysiology workstation. The flexibility and the programming options of the CyBio FeliX make both of these challenging liquid handling tasks easy to achieve.“

Dr. Roland Hemmler, Product Manager Ionovation GmbH

"The CyBio FeliX proved to be indispensable..."

"The CyBio FeliX proved to be indispensable for establishing and optimizing the workflow. Particularly important for us was the fine-grained control of liquid dispensing for gentle compound additions to minimize cell disturbance."

Dr. Ralf Schwandner, CEO & Founder Assay.Works GmbH

"The CyBio FeliX is the hidden champion..."

“The CyBio FeliX is the hidden champion of our CompuGene-platform for developing Synthetic Biology applications. We use it for controlling our cell-factories with inducers and preparing samples for cytometry. The flexibility in programming and precision of movement even allows us to use it as a colony picker.”

Prof. Dr. Johannes Kabisch, TU Darmstadt

 

“The CyBio FeliX is an indispensable part of our assay workflow."

“The CyBio Felix is an indispensable part of our assay workflow. The complexity of our manual steps was incorporated into multiple CyBio Felix processes for dispensing liquids with high precision and accuracy. The processes applied made our semi-automated workflows efficient and easy to perform.”

Elisabet L. Nalvarte, PhD, Great Plains Laboratory

"The CyBio FeliX makes up the backbone of our NGS workflow automation..."

“The CyBio FeliX makes up the backbone of our NGS workflow automation at LabGenius, taking us all the way from sample to qPCR quantified sequencing library with the click of a button. The Cybio FeliX enables this through its reliability, precision control and ease of integration.“

Staffan Piledahl, Software Engineer, LabGenius Ltd.

"The CyBio Felix enables us to process partial steps and complex biological assays [...]"

The CyBio Felix enables us to process partial steps and complex biological assays through its individuality. Its high throughput and precision enable us to quickly characterize new innovative antibacterial and antiviral drugs.“

Dr. A. Birkmann, Head of Research AiCuris Anti-infective Cures GmbH

#HowToFeliX

CyBio FeliX is a versatile and flexible pipetting platform. Whether you’re doing MALDI sample preparation, genetic engineering, nucleic acid extraction, cell application, or other pipetting routines – the CyBio FeliX is suitable for the automation of virtually every laboratory workflow. Watch our #HowToFeliX video to learn more about the features and capabilities of the CyBio FeliX.

Automated nucleic acid extraction and (q)PCR setup

The combination of CyBio FeliX and the corresponding Extraction Set offers automated nucleic acid extraction in the 96-well format, which is coordinated down to the smallest detail. With only a few additional configurations, the CyBio FeliX can also be used for the subsequent creation of a (q)PCR setup.
