nCounter Prep Station
The nCounter Prep Station is the automated fluidic handling component of the nCounter Analysis System. It processes samples post-hybridization to prepare them for data collection on the nCounter Digital Analyzer. Prior to placing samples on the Prep Station, samples are hybridized according to the nCounter protocol. On the deck of the Prep Station, hybridized samples are purified and subsequently immobilized in the sample cartridge for data collection.
All consumable components and reagents required for sample processing on the Prep Station are provided in the nCounter Master Kit and arrive in your lab ready to load on the deck of the robot. The Prep Station can process up to 48 samples in a 10-hour time span.
nCounter Digital Analyzer
The nCounter Digital Analyzer collects data by taking images of the immobilized fluorescent reporters in the sample cartridge with a CCD camera through a microscope objective lens. Images are processed internally and the data output files include the target identifier and count number along with a comprehensive tally of internal controls that allows each assay to be quantitative. The small data files can be distributed using a variety of methods and are easily integrated with commonly used data analysis and visualization packages.
