24-slide loaders for high throughput applications
Save time and make analysis of your sample series more convenient: InnoScan 910, InnoScan 710-IR and InnoScan 710 scanners can be equipped with 24-slide loaders for high throughput applications.
High throughput scanning
Speed: with a reading time of 100 minutes for 24 slides, InnoScan AutoLoader is now the fastest scanner on the market.
Automation: Insert your slides easily into the loader, configure reading and analysis parameters in a few clicks. Create different reading and analysis programs for different slides in the same cycle.
Reading and analysis is simplicity itself :
Load your microarrays
Run the cycle
Collect your results
Technology
The InnoScan AutoLoader is very compact and saves laboratory space.
Its frontal loading system, reachable by a vertical sliding door, makes it easy to load/unload up to 24 slides directly with no need a for special slide holders. Fully compatible with all standard slides available on the market..
Sensors and an innovative gripping system (without tongs or fork) ensure the slides' physical integrity during the insertion/extraction process.

Applications
InnoScan AutoLoader is compatible with a wide variety of microarrays (DNA, Protein, aCGH, etc.) from different suppliers as well as home made microarrays. The InnoScan 710 AL model is ideal for reading medium or low density slides, and the InnoScan 900 AL offers the resolution required to read high density slides for the following applications:
Functional genomics: CNV, genotyping, DNA methylation. Gene expression profiling.
Proteomics: Protein expression profiling.
Clinical research: Cytogenetics & IVF. Disease stratification.
Industry application: Food contaminant investigations. New drug impact research.
