Companies around the world continue to show strong interest in the Biomek NGeniuS Next Generation Library Prep System from Beckman Coulter Life Sciences and seek to develop demonstrated applications on this easy-to-use new NGS automation platform, which reduces errors and minimizes hands-on time.

Following a successful unveiling to the media and lab researchers at last month’s Society for Laboratory Automation and Screening (SLAS) International Conference & Exhibition in Boston, the company announces it has entered into an application development agreement with AmoyDx.
 
The collaboration will enable AmoyDx, an innovative commercial-stage in vitro diagnostic (IVD) company, to develop new demonstrated applications on the Biomek NGeniuS Liquid Handling System*. The purpose-built liquid handler for NGS library preparation reduces manual transfers and the traditionally labor-intensive process of library construction.
 
“We are committed to accelerating application development and providing new NGS applications to further propel the research journey of our customers,” said Calvin Cortes, Biomek NGeniuS System Product Manager. “This is part of a robust series of development agreements, which speaks to the strength of the Biomek NGeniuS System coupled with the automation library preparation portfolio of partners like AmoyDx.”
 
“To benefit tumor patients globally, and to bring value to customers, is our unwavering pursuit,” said Jiemin Luo, the Rotating General Manager of AmoyDx. “Together with Beckman Coulter Life Sciences, AmoyDx will bring advanced and reliable automated library preparation solutions for accelerating and improving quality and efficiency of NGS research.”
 
As part of the partnership agreement, AmoyDx will develop applications specifically designed for the Biomek NGeniuS liquid handler, which will be available to all users via a first-of-its-kind electronic application library.
 
The Biomek NGeniuS System is scheduled to launch in the second quarter of 2022.
