FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 11, 2003 Guava Technologies: Rapid screening of individual cells for green fluorescent proteins. The new Guava PCA-96 AFP (Auto-Fluorescing Protein) system allows researchers to determine the relative levels of fluorescing proteins produced by individual cells in a culture and to screen 96 such cultures in a single instrument run. The compact Guava PCA-96 AFP system is the only blue-laser, micro-volume cell analysis system capable of screening single cells for GFP expression in an automated 96-well plate format at the research benchtop. With the new Guava PCA-96 AFP system screening individual cells for green fluorescent proteins is now easier and quicker than ever. "The Guava PCA-96 AFP's fluorescence sensitivity, ease of use, and ability to analyse only microliter volumes [without sample carryover] makes the new Guava quite versatile as a research instrument and a terrific addition to the Guava product line," said Dr. Lewis Lanier, professor of microbiology and immunology at the University of California, San Francisco, USA. "The Guava PCA-96 AFP system is really useful for analysing transformed cells that express GFP and detecting cells stained with both FITC-conjugated and PE-conjugated antibodies." Like other Guava PCA systems, the Guava PCA-96 AFP is compact, affordable and easy to use, requiring only microvolumes of cells and reagents and less than a day's training.
