The ability to synthesize DNA sequences from scratch, together with technologies such as CRISPR/Cas9, is the foundation of synthetic biology, enabling the targeted introduction of novel genetic sequences into living cells.
The design, creation, and screening of newly developed biosystems require platforms that deliver precision, robustness, and speed to provide sufficient throughput.
Synthetic biology requires the production of many complex genetic constructs – such as signaling and metabolic pathways, regulatory circuits or minimal genomes – to find the ideal combinations. Automation is indispensable for synthetic biology approaches, helping to massively increase the throughput and reproducibility of screening studies.
That’s why we offer a genetic engineering platform that can deliver the required speed and accuracy for just about any synthetic biology challenge.
Scaling up this process on a robotic system also gives us higher throughput and repeatability, without the variability inherent in manual procedures.
Tecan workstations have a proven track record for reproducible automated transfection, helping to optimize the efficiency of CRISPR/Cas9 or RNAi screening assays using a variety of transfection methods.
Use automation to eliminate human error across the entire workflow for expensive expression systems. Combine automated genetic engineering with integrated cell culture systems capable of checking cell vitality and confluency.
We offer a suite of automation solutions that helps to optimize reagent and cell preparation for a robust expression system.
Add a Spark® Cyto to your genetic engineering platform and use automation to identify your desired clones faster.
The Spark Cyto microplate reader offers live cell imaging and real-time cytometry with included predefined applications for easily assessing transfection efficiency and reporter activity based on standard fluorometric and luminometric detection, as well as fluorescence-based cell imaging.
With Tecan’s genetic engineering platform, you can customize the automated construction of your synthetic biology system.

Automating product testing is essential for enhancing the throughput and reliability of synthetic biology workflows. Let us accelerate your research with an automated solution to address your specific bottleneck or configure a flexible platform that you can adjust to your changing needs.
Complex synthetic systems require multiple testing methods, making automation essential to reliably explore different approaches. Tecan offers a flexible solution for high throughput testing, helping to accelerate your research while improving reproducibility and accuracy.
Automate your ‘omics’ sample prep to go from testing just a few samples a week to hundreds a day. Our solution streamlines your entire workflow, from protein purification to enzyme activity read outs.
As we test thousands of different mutations, automated high throughput screening is the key to our success.
Combine effortless and reliable plating and picking of bacteria, fungi, plant, and mammalian cell colonies.
Designed specifically for Tecan’s liquid handling platforms, the PetriPlater™ and Pickolo™ Colony-Picker from SciRobotics can be seamlessly integrated with upstream and downstream synthetic biology workflows, including NAP, PCR set-up and protein purification.
詳細はこちらYour synthetic products need desalting, purifying, and cleaning up before testing. Automate your SPE workflows to increase reliability and cut processing times.
The Resolvex® A200 positive pressure system enables semi-automated processing of single columns or 96-well plates, allowing the accurate delivery of a range of solvents, from deionized water to hexane. Integrate the Resolvex A200 onto Tecan liquid handling platforms to benefit from a complete, hands-free sample preparation and product testing solution.
Creating new organisms necessitates the need to characterize these new life forms at the molecular level.
Tecan’s portfolio of detection solutions allows you to add ELISA testing, enzyme screening and RNAseq to your automated workflow.

Modifying prokaryotic cells to generate novel enzymes with new abilities, or producing specific products more efficiently, are common procedures in synthetic biology. High throughput transformation, enzyme screening and testing are therefore key to process optimization.
We offer streamlined automation of transformation protocols for bacteria and yeast or other fungi, as well as walkaway enzymatic screening and testing, with integrated culture incubators, readers, and sample tracking options.
The integrated scheduler software allows you to automatically schedule culture maintenance and density measurements, transformations, enzymatic screening, and testing to meet your workflow requirements.
This streamlined process not only enhances your productivity, but also provides a new level of standardization.Never lose track of a clone again with automated sample tracking. The cryo-preservation of your clones can be fully automated, then you can easily find and retrieve the clone that has the best potential based on your enzymatic test results.
Unlock the power of synthetic biology by standardizing your workflow and boosting your repeatability and productivity with Tecan automation solutions.
