Feature | Benefit |
Sensitive to endogenous receptors | Enables reliable and robust measurements of endogenous cellular receptor activity, even low density receptors which may be undetectable with other functional assays. |
Label free detection | Expensive tags, dyes, or specialized reagents are not required. This reduces the resources required for assay development and eliminates the incidence of undesirable interactions with labels. |
Universal platform for functional cell surface target assays | Single platform and assay methodology measures GPCRs, TKRs, adhesion molecules, and indirectly measures ligand-gated ion channels, among other targets. |
Measures all cell types | System measures disease and biologically relevant cell lines and primary cells, including adherent and non-adherent cell types. |
Measures all classes of compound efficacy | Comprehensive detection of agonists, antagonists, partial and inverse agonists, and allosteric modulators in a native setting in a single assay. |
Information-rich kinetic response data |
Reproducible and robust qualitative pathway-specific cell response profiles. Probe complex receptor signaling, pathway diversity, and identify the underlying mechanism of action (MOA) of lead compounds. |
Streamlined assay development |
Single-assay format for multiple receptor types regardless of signal coupling mechanism. Reduces the resources spent on assay development, such as time consuming and costly biological manipulation of cell lines and the optimization of labeling reagents. |
384-well format | 384-well measurement and fluidics accelerates throughput for label-free cell-based kinetic screening, up to 25000 wells in an 8 hour period. Reduces per well cost, due to high density format and decreases cells/well and reagent needs. |
Integrated, internal pipettor head | Simultaneous addition of ligand and/or compound while measuring the fast kinetic cellular responses, delivers reproducible and robust response profiles, with no loss of information. |
On-board tip wash system | Online tip washing extends unattended operation during extended runs, increases throughput capability, and reduces running costs. |
Automation-friendly | Designed for easy robotic integration with small and large scale automation platforms. |
Ease of use | The CellKey 384 System is a fully integrated, flexible, and intuitive platform. |
