Homon, Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals Incorporated Presenting Author: Paul Taylor, Boehringer Ingelheim - USA In the last several years capacities of high throughput screening campaigns have dramatically increased. In order to address this, efficiencies of screening system components have come under closer scrutiny so that robust production cycles can be maintained. Overall throughputs are always limited by the slowest step in the process. We identified the Tecan PW384 as having a cycle time that needed improvement and designed experiments to investigate the effects of modifying the pump to achieve this goal. Our methods and results are presented in this poster. |
