Mapix controls all INNOPSYS microarray scanners. Saving configurations (reading and analysis settings) allows users to define all protocols appropriately for each of their applications.
Reading and integrating the microarray barcode into the image file provides traceability ot the data.
The automatic setting is an efficient option which simplifies and optimises scanning applications.
Images are saved as 16 bit and 20 bit TIFF files inclding all the reading parameters (pixel size, laser power, etc.) and can be exported as JPEG or PNG.
The XDR scanning mode (Extended Dynamic Range), provides a 6 log dynamic range maximising low signal detection whilst avoiding saturated spots.
Mapix image analysis software has been specially designed to handle the very large files generated by ultra high resolution scanning.
