Applications & Downloads

The library of published Cerionx Application Notes currently covers genomics, cell based, biochemical and immunoassays. Each publication outlines the specific advantages of incorporating the TipCharger System onto automated platforms -- speed and throughput for some assays, fewer tip box changes for other assays -- and elimination of contamination risk for all assays.

In addition, Cerionx Application Specialists will assist you in determining the methodology and length of cleaning cycle that works best for your needs. In general, cleaning cycles of just 5-30 seconds will remove all but the most difficult debris.
