Octet AS

Octet AS

The Octet® AS enables simultaneous and uniform loading of reagents onto all 96 biosensors in a biosensor tray. Target analytes, ligands, and other reagents that do not require online signal monitoring can be loaded onto biosensors using the Octet® AS, leaving the Octet® instrument available for other users or for critical online assay steps. This accessory can be installed alongside an Octet® system and operated either independently or in conjunction with it.

  • Offline loading of reagents onto biosensors
  • Simultaneous loading of up to 96 biosensors
  • Automation compatible
  • Compact and portable
  • Ideal for creating large quantities of custom biosensors
  • Reduced incubation times

When preparing custom biosensors, incubation with sample shaking and temperature control on the Octet® AS improves loading efficiency and reproducibility while reducing loading times. Biosensor loading efficiency can be further enhanced by using the Octet® AS station together with a liquid-handling robotic workstation to automate custom biosensor preparation or offline Octet® assay steps. The Octet® AS station also enables robust, multi-step Octet® immunoassays on lower-throughput instruments by allowing intermediate assay steps to be performed offline and then returning to the Octet® system for final analysis steps, reducing overall incubation times.
