Myra+ Advantages
Increased Efficiency
True seamless workflow from setup to analysis.
Accurate Results
The Mic qPCR instrument provides precise and reliable date, while the Myra liquid handling system reduces the risk of human error in sample preparation.
User-Friendly
Real plug and play hardware and intuitive software, designed with the end user in mind.
Cost-Effective
Competitive pricing enables entry into complete automation coupled with minimal service costs.
Compact Footprint
Saves on valuable lab space without compromising performance.
Sample Prep
Myra+ is equipped to handle your sample preparation needs, whether you’re using standard magnetic-based extraction methods or going directly to PCR. The device is versatile enough to process various sample formats. For samples that include swabs, Myra+ is uniquely designed to prevent collisions by automatically pushing the swab aside, ensuring smooth operation.
Open Platform
There’s no need to be confined to costly micro-fluidic cartridges. Experience flexibility with your assays and protocols with Myra+.
Features include:
- Vortex mixing
- Multi-tube aspiration
- Film piercing
- Extensive consumable library
- Lyophilized reagent compatible
V-caps
Our proprietary V-cap tubes simplify the process of loading qPCR reactions directly into the on-deck Mic cycler. The design uses centrifugal force to push the liquid through an aperture in the cap and into the tube, beneath the pre-filled oil, ensuring efficient and accurate sample processing.
Intuitive Software
The Myra+ boasts software that stands out from other automated platforms. For standard lab operations such as qPCR, an intuitive UI enables easy setup, running, and analysis. Create your own custom protocols using our protocol development function. Flexibility without the complexity. LIMS compatibility, user permission levels, and automated analysis functions. 21 CFR part 11 compliant.
qPCR Runs
Samples and reactions are loaded directly into the V-cap tubes within the on-deck Mic qPCR cycler. The system is designed to monitor for the presence of tubes and prevent the loading of tubes that might contain the previous run reactions, thereby avoiding contamination issues.
Accessories
Most of the SBS positions feature deep sockets, accommodating deeper wells and longer tubes. We offer a variety of adaptors to fit numerous tube and plate types. Our in-house 3D printing capabilities allow us to customdesign new block types to fit unique tubes or plates.
