BD Pathway 855 Bioimager and Twister® II Plate Server


BD Pathway 855 Bioimager and Twister II . . . Increase throughput and improve efficiency. 

Becton Dickinson’s (BD) Pathway 855 High-Content Bioimager is one of the most capable imaging solutions available.  Whether you are processing for live and fixed cell samples the Pathway 855 is an extremely capable solution for a broad range of fluorescence-based kinetic and endpoint assays.  Caliper Life Sciences has expanded capabilities and improved workflow by integrating our Twister II plate server.  This solution allows the Pathway 855 to have increased capacity and the ability to integrate with other instrumentation, such as a barcode reader, incubator, or preparative liquid handler. 

When coupled with the Twister II plate server, Caliper’s iLinkPro™ scheduling software provides unattended, walk-away operation for extended run times.  The software also enables integration with preparative liquid handlers, like Caliper’s Zephyr and Sciclone instruments, creating a complete solution for sample processing.
