Automating absorbance assays

Biochrom Ltd, a manufacturer of quality scientific instruments, and Gilson, a leader in fluidics, purification and sample management, announced today an agreement  to co-market and distribute in Europe products for automation of ELISAs and other absorbance assays.

The partnership combines the EZ Read range of microplate readers from Biochrom, with Gilson’s line of liquid handling systems. Used together the  offering enables scientists to automate their absorbance assays, including ELISA, total protein and cell viability.

Tristana von Will, Global Product Marketing Manager at Biochrom, commented:  “Researchers and technicians will be very familiar with both the Biochrom and Gilson brands, but together we can further streamline experimental workflows for our customers.”

EZ Read Microplate readers and Gilson PIPETMAX

Ronan Herry, European Marketing Director at Gilson International BV, said:” The Biochrom range of EZ Read Microplate readers fits very well with our range of liquid handling products, either for those customers who require manual or electronic multichannel pipettes from the PIPETMAN range or for those customers that would like to automate their lab work flows. 

"The Gilson PIPETMAX comes at a size and price that is accessible to any lab and takes away the stress and strain of manual pipetting for ELISA and Bradford type assays while improving reproducibility. Adding the Biochrom range now enables Gilson to offer a complete applications solution for our customers."
