Pathfinder™ system for fully automated genotoxicity tests. Using ACCELL SFD robotic device, up to 200 samples can be fully automatically processed in one batch without human intervention. A single mouse click enables capture of the samples, detection analysis of thousands of comets and statistical analysis of different experimental conditions on a single plot.
The Pathfinder™ system, complete with our Comet applied software module, allows fully automated comet and comet head detection, as well as automated quantification of the parameters of interest (total fluorescence, Head vs Tail fluorescence, Olive moment, Extent moment, etc). The Comet module automatically takes into account the diffusion around the head to provide accurate data.
Pathfinder™ technology enables a 32-fold increase in the number of slides processed per day as compared to conventional software-assisted scoring. Since Pathfinder scoring occurs without human intervention, it frees human work forces and it is 100% repeatable, reliable and operator-independent.
Recent developments for high-throughput parallelized comet assay experiments using Gelbond™ films are fully compatible with Pathfinder™ technology. IMSTAR is part of COMICS European program for empowering comet assay capabilities and throughput.
