Next generation platforms for high-throughput biodosimetry

Year: 2014

Type: article

Abstract: Here the general concept of the combined use of plates and tubes in racks compatible with the American National Standards Institute/the Society for Laboratory Automation and Screening microplate formats as the next generation platforms for increasing the throughput of biodosimetry assays was described. These platforms can be used at different stages of biodosimetry assays starting from blood collection into microtubes organised in standardised racks and ending with the cytogenetic analysis of samples in standardised multiwell and multichannel plates. Robotically friendly platforms can be used for different biodosimetry assays in minimally equipped laboratories and on cost-effective automated universal biotech systems.
