Overview
Modifying genomes has never been easier than it is today. No more harvesting your own restriction enzymes, DNA sequencing is outsourced, and biological parts are joining the registry by the hundreds. Synthetic biology is on the brink of becoming the next industrial revolution, but is still lacking on one major component that has catalyzed every industry in history to fame: automation. Vivosynth has conceived of the idea of a completely automated cloning machine ModuLab that can produce plasmids at a fraction of the cost at which you pay today.
Why?
Bottom line: cost. Time is money, and the majority of a synthetic biologist’s life is spent in the lab cloning. With no mistakes, this single, repetitive process can take multiple workdays. And that’s only the prep work for the actual experiment!
In national and academic labs alike, competent, intelligent, creative people conduct the same, repetitive procedures of cloning for all synthetic biology experiments. Seem kind of backwards? Shouldn’t scientists be paid to do science and not a machine’s work?
Unfortunately, cloning bots are few and far between and extremely expensive to make, operate, and maintain. That’s why we created ModuLab – the automated cloning machine fit to produce vectors efficiently with minimal human intervention thus drastically reducing error at minimal cost.
