Taking a holistic approach from concept through to market, the company works collaboratively with its clients to deliver an integrated range of instrument development, custom automation and systems integration services.
Engineering is tightly coupled with in-house application science to enable field representative product testing during the development process.
In-house bio-safe laboratories are available for testing of early prototypes with real samples in a representative environment, and for subsequently supporting replicated systems at client sites globally.
Jari Palander, Vice President of North American Operations at Invetech, comments: "Invetech is capable of handling difficult challenges - our scale, breath of expertise and skills, and diverse project experience enables us to think out-of-the-box and uncover innovative, proprietary solutions and integrate these with our clients' new and existing systems".
The Invetech track record builds on thousands of development projects worldwide.
The company has recently demonstrated its expertise with the development of the base technology with complex multi-lane microfluidics on a silicon based fluidics chip.
In a matter of months, Invetech designed a proprietary drug discovery platform on that base technology, integrating commercial autosamplers with complex fluidics and high performance fluorescence cellular imaging.
The final system enabled previously unfeasible cellular assays for cell apoptosis and ADME/Tox analysis.
In another case, Invetech was asked to develop an in-house high throughput screening platform on behalf of a leading North American company.
Working in close collaboration with the client technology R+D department enabled Invetech to enhance the design of the system and replicate it for supply to global divisions. Request a free brochure from Invetech ...
