SPIFE Nexus: Transformative Technology

Advanced robotics allow users to realize labor savings while taking full advantage of the high sensitivity of gel electrophoresis for IFE, proteins, hemoglobins and more. Explore the demo video now.

Full Automation

Just load samples and supplies, press start and return later for a scanned, finished gel. Everything is automated. Visual status indicators let you see what’s happening at a glance.

Revolutionary Antisera Application

Antisera for up to 15 IFE profiles is uniformly dispensed by the SPIFE Nexus without any crossover contamination. A temperature-controlled reagent bay maintains integrity of antisera on-board.

SPIFE Nexus Assays

SPIFE Nexus provide walkaway automation for a growing menu of assays. Gel sizes are available to accommodate most laboratories for maximum efficiency.

Highlighted Features

SPIFE

User-Friendly with Error Checking

A bench top Ready Run Tray allows easy five-minute setup and assay specific QR codes on components allow automated pre-run system checking to prevent operator errors.

Auto Sampling and Dilutions

SPIFE Nexus samples from barcoded primary tubes, performs needed dilutions and applies directly to gels. The advanced applicator system is unaffected by triglycerides or large proteins.

Ready-To-Use Stains

Liquid stains are provided ready for aliquoting in sample cups for auto application. Micro stain volumes reduce waste and a new Clear Wash provides clear backgrounds for easy interpretation.

Integrated Reporting

Helena’s QuickScan Touch Plus software with networked SQL database allows remote editing and interpretation, linking to other Helena gel and CE data and integrated reporting with historic results.
