The Procleix Software is one part of the Procleix Xpress System. The Procleix Xpress System is intended to be used to create pools of human plasma or serum for in vitro diagnostic testing, such as blood screening tests for viral nucleic acids. The Procleix Xpress System automatically transfers plasma or serum from individual samples into a single master pool tube, which may be used for further testing in Procleix systems. The Procleix Xpress System also collects barcode data from all tubes, racks, and archive plates used in a given pooling run, establishing positive specimen identification and Master Pool Tube (MPT) composition. In addition, the Procleix Xpress System can be used to dispense human plasma or serum aliquots into an archive plate.
A device typically used in the laboratory to withdraw, transfer, and inject specific volumes of fluid materials. It is electronically operated and can have a single channel or a multichannel piston/cylinder pick up assembly. The device delivers the same volume of liquid that can be delivered into one or several receptacles simultaneously (e.g., the wells of a microtitre plate). A pipette may be factory pre-set to deliver a given volume, or may have user-selectable volumes within a useful volume range. The delivered volume may be digitally displayed. This device is typically hand-held.
