Rapid sample preparation instrument to isolate and stain target cells (e.g. Legionella) from a water sample.
Our instrument works in conjunction with our reagent kits and microfluidic cartridges for a complete solution, enabling the user to isolate and stain target cells (e.g. Legionella) from a water sample. The concentrated and purified sample can be directly quantified with a standard flow cytometer. Alternatively, the sample can be analyzed via ISO plating or PCR.
Our disposable and convenient-to-use microfluidic cartridges enable the user to perform fully automated immunomagnetic separations (IMS) at a high throughput, resulting in isolated samples with greater than 99% purity and over 80% recovery rates. Four samples can be processed in parallel with never-before-seen process stability.
rqmicro's first flag-ship product revolutionizes microbiological sample preparation:
• Quantitative detection of Legionella in 1-2 hours
• Discrimination of viable and dead cells
• Highly specific monoclonal antibodies
• Recoveries exceeding 80%
• Easy and safe sample handling due to disposable cartridges
