Rapid retrieval of whole tissue samples
The 48-position Ziath Mohawk tube picker from Azenta Life Sciences selects and picks wide, heavy, or tall tubes making this system perfect for retrieving individual whole tissue samples from storage.
Proven in installations worldwide, Mohawk tube selection and picking technology avoids the need for slow and costly robotic systems. Importing a pick list, selecting, and picking larger whole tissue sample tubes takes just seconds.
The Mohawk 48 uses forty-eight solenoid pins to enable a specific frozen or thawed sample tube to be raised and selected when a 48-position tube rack is presented according to a pick list from Excel or a LIMS system. Alternatively specific individual tubes can be manually selected and picked via the user interface. Individual sample tubes can be picked from a single rack, or users can create a picklist to select tubes across multiple racks. Pick lists can be created by connecting the Mohawk to a whole-rack reader, such as the Ziath Mirage. The advantage in that case is that destination racks of picked tubes can also be verified for accuracy on the same reader.
Connecting the Mohawk 48 directly to a 2D-barcode scanner for tube confirmation provides extra sample tracking and security. Operating in this configuration it is also possible to generate picklists directly from the tube barcodes. For further traceability, a 1D-scanner for reading the rack barcode is included as standard.

Novel reagents drive breakthroughs in Parkinson’s and sleep disorder research
In a recent blog post, AMSBIO sheds light on the ground-breaking strides achieved in Parkinson’s disease research, hypersomnia studies, and eco-friendly microbial ester production facilitated by their innovative BioPORTER®
play a pivotal role in elevating research efficiency, precision, and reproducibility.
A collaborative initiative led by Dr Wenjing Wang at the University of Michigan and Dr Xiaobo Mao of Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine has propelled significant advancements in potential therapeutics for Parkinson’s disease. The utilisation of the BioPORTER®
protein
delivery reagent kit enabled seamless transduction of α-syn preformed fibrils to HEK293T cells, unravelling the relationship between α-syn aggregation and PFFNB2. BioPORTER®
utilises
biocompatible polymers to encapsulate and shield proteins during delivery, ensuring stability and activity for more accurate and reproducible outcomes.
Dr Andrew Jenkins and his team at the University of Saint Joseph are trailblazers in repurposing compounds to address sleep disorders, particularly hypersomnia. Employing Detachin™ Cell Detachment Solution, the researchers prepared cells for electrophysiological analysis, ensuring high cell viability and functionality through a reliable detachment process. This step is crucial in cell culture experiments, and Detachin™ minimises the risk of altered cell behaviour.
Microbial production of short-chain esters presents an eco-friendly alternative to chemical synthesis, yet challenges in low yields persist. Dr Arul M. Varman at Arizona State University and Dr Ryan Davis from Sandia National Laboratories harnessed the SoluLyse™ Bacterial Protein Extraction Reagent to streamline and expedite the extraction of high-quality protein from E. coli. This efficient formulation ensures optimal cell lysis without compromising protein integrity, addressing the challenge of low yields in microbial ester production.
Dr Maja Petkovic, Business Unit Manager at AMSBIO, emphasised the transformative impact of these reagents, stating: “Replacing basic life science reagents with products like BioPORTER®
offering enhanced performance and convenience for more reliable and reproducible results.”
