ThunderBolt^®*

Small footprint, big opportunities

A cost-efficient solution optimized for lower throughput demands and ideally suited to our specialty assay portfolio.

Economical

Small footprint saves space.
Single probe, dual needle system with liquid level sensing enables clot detection and minimizes dead volume
Advanced diagnostics though start-up instrument check, and logging and archiving of files for every operation.
Probe-mounted camera for remote troubleshooting, to maximize uptime.

Efficient

High sample and reagent loading capacity for parallel processing of up to eight assays.
Orbital microplate shaker, with no-spill design, improves adherence to assay protocols.
Sliding tray provides easy access for sample and reagent loading, reducing hands-on time.

Precise

High precision microsyringe enables direct 1:100 dilution in reaction wells.
Individual well tracking and timing of all process steps eliminates OD drifts over plates.
Forced air convection incubator evenly heats each well and avoids edge effects

Safe

Intelligent racks automatically detect and record sample positions during loading to reduce errors.
Built-in barcode reader streamlines loading and decreases sample tracking errors.
Intuitive workflow, with adjustable lot-specific information, flexible data reduction, multi-language support and more.

^* Not available in the USA. The combined use of assays, process scripts and instrument has to be validated individually on site by each laboratory.

We provide you the ThunderBolt^® automation platform with reagent rental agreement on our immunoassay portfolio. Such equipment rental plans are a great option for small as well as large volume labs that face budgetary constraints for the purchase of new instruments for in-lab testing.
