The robotic system for sample preparation for infection source analysis is the best innovation in the instrumentation category presented at a prestigious conference focusing on analytical chemistry and applied spectroscopy. The award, which has a similar prestige in these fields as the Red Dot in the world of design, was received by representatives of BioVendor Instruments at the PITTCON 2017 conference in Chicago, USA.
MALDI COLONYST is a unique laboratory robot that can automatically transfer microbial colonies from a petri dish to a MALDI plate with targets and apply the reagent. The robotic device is not subject to fatigue and stress, allowing it to perform stably virtually all the time. This helps to reduce human error, increase the accuracy of identifying the origin of infection and thus avoid the risk of misdiagnosis and mistreatment of patients.This is the first device of its kind in the world available to analytical laboratories.
