Tecan collaborates with Arizona State University to rapidly assess radiation exposure
Dr Carl Yamashiro, principal investigator at ASU’s Biodesign Institute, explained: “The research team will work with Tecan on building a comprehensive high throughput system, allowing scientists to analyze blood samples from up to 2,000 people per day, per instrument. The beauty of our system is its versatility. Not only will we be developing a system for the effective response to a nuclear or radiological event that could affect a large population, but the high throughout platform can also be used to advance genomics testing and other routine laboratory procedures that measure gene expression levels.”
