QPIx colony picker, bacterial colonies, yeast colonies, phage display system

Setting an industry standard

QPix colony pickers are used worldwide in over 600 installations in research institutes, sequencing facilities, biotech and pharmaceutical companies. Their reputation for reliability and accuracy was established during the Human Genome project where six out of seven major sequencing centers standardized on QPix colony pickers.
