 +Scalability, efficiency and versatility are key advantages the system offers researchers. Thanks to the HT-200 High-Throughput Plate Handler, the Gemini X2 can simultaneously place 96 distinct DNA/RNA constructs inside a variety of organisms — and do it in under 20 seconds.
  
 +Using electrical pulses to create transient gaps in cell walls and move nucleic acids inside, the system can generate both exponential decay and square wave forms, with a wide range of options for voltage and pulse length. As a result, users have the flexibility to work on microbes such as bacteria and yeast, as well as mammalian cells and tissues, in vivo, in vitro and with CRISPR gene-editing experiments.
  
 +The 96-well plate handler has automated track switching and is compatible with every type of buffer. Importantly, the system matches advanced features with a user-friendly interface on a large color touchscreen. Remote operation is possible with a footswitch or via PC. Internal log storage of experimental data simplifies optimization, quality control and troubleshooting. And safety features include pre-pulse resistance measurement and three layers of arc protection.
