Device Description

The Prep Station is a part of the nCounter DX Analysis System, which consists of two instruments, the nCounter Prep Station 5s and the nCounter Digital Analyzer 5s. The Prep Station is the automated fluidic handling component of the nCounter DX Analysis System which processes samples post-hybridization. The samples prepared by the Prep Station are used for data collection on the nCounter Digital Analyzer. Together,the NanoString nCounter DX Analysis System (liquid handling robot and epifluorescence scanner) delivers direct, multiplexed measurements of gene expression through digital readouts of the relative abundance of mRNA transcripts using the following steps: 1) a hybridization of the mRNA to fluorescent Reporter Probes and Capture Probes, 2) purification of the target/probe complexes using nCounter Prep Plates containing reagents necessary for post-hybridization processing and immobilization onto the nCounter Cartridge on the nCounter Prep Station, and 3) analysis of the nCounter Cartridge on the nCounter Digital Analyzer to provide a test result.
