Publication number: 20230031117Abstract: A system for biological analysis includes a housing, a block assembly within the housing having a sample block and a baseplate, a heated cover and a cover carrier. The sample block receives a sample holder comprising an RFID tag. A first drive mechanism generates relative movement between the sample block and the baseplate along a first axis. A second drive mechanism generates relative movement between the heated cover and the cover carrier along a second axis that is different from the first axis. Based on a first command the first drive mechanism releasably engages the sample block and operates the second drive mechanism to releasably engage the heated cover with the cover carrier. The system also includes first and second RFID antennas that receive RFID data from the sample holder RFID tag that is read by at least one RFID reader.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 14, 2022Publication date: February 2, 2023Applicants: Life Technologies Holdings PTE Limited, Life Technologies CorporationInventors: Kuan Moon Boo, Wei Fuh Teo, Zeqi Tan, Soo Yong Lau, Ming Tiong Sia, Woon Liang Soh, Ching Yee Lam, Shan Hua Dong, Marc Haberstroh, Michael C.

Patent number: 11529598Abstract: The present set of embodiments relate to a system, method, and apparatus controlling a cell culture media mixing system. The control system includes an integrated control unit capable of controlling a broad ranges of peripheral devices commonly used in bioproduction through a graphical user interface displayed on a touch sensitive screen. The bioproduction system is designed to be highly customizable through process modification and recipe creation by user with little or no knowledge of programming and is capable of controlling a wide variety of devices using a single unit. The bioproduction system allows for auto-detection, auto-calibration, and automatic of device related processes into a bioproduction workflow.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2019Date of Patent: December 20, 2022Assignees: Life Technologies Corporation, Life Technologies Holdings PTE LimitedInventors: Joshua Mead, Scott Rickes, Sean Zimmerman, Alessandra Barbosa, Mio Ling, Woon Liang Soh, Kevin Mullen, Christopher Brau, Jordan Cobia, Harmon Jr Cosme Sicat, Kok Shyong Chong, Han Wei, Wei Fuh Teo, Syed Muhammad Baber Ali
