About Tecan’s Phase Separator™
Introducing the Phase Separator™, a patented technology seamlessly integrated into Tecan’s Fluent® Automation Workstation, revolutionizing centrifuged blood sample separation. Tecan’s Phase Separator excels by delivering rapid processing speeds, up to twice as fast as conventional camera-based systems, without compromising on sample volume or risking cross-contamination. Its unique in-tube phase boundary detection ensures accurate separation of plasma and/or buffy coat from whole blood. This process is designed to prevent interference from external markings on tubes, thus maintaining the sample's integrity and chain of custody. With its broad applications in both liquid biopsy and biobanking, the Phase Separator's influence extends into genomics and proteomics, impacting research and diagnostics across a spectrum of disease areas, such as oncology, neurodegenerative diseases, and metabolic disorders. It embodies Tecan’s dedication to scaling healthcare innovation globally, from life science to the clinic.
