WaferGen signs distribution agreements for micro-incubation system

WaferGen Biosystems has signed exclusive distribution agreements for the company's SmartSlide micro-incubation system with Bucher Biotec in Switzerland, Unimed Healthcare in Taiwan and AH diagnostics in the Nordic region.

The distributor agreements cover WaferGen’s entire family of SmartSlide micro-incubation system products. WaferGen’s SmartSlide micro-incubation system is a family of integrated fluidics exchange micro-incubation products that work seamlessly with inverted microscopes.

According to the company, this breakthrough technology is enabling cell biology and stem cell researchers to conduct complex time lapse imaging studies to characterize, differentiate and proliferate cells, as well as grow stem, primary and other difficult to cultivate cells in consistently optimal physiological conditions.

These innovative capabilities will allow researchers to pursue cutting-edge research topics that are not addressable with existing technology.

Alnoor Shivji, chairman and CEO of WaferGen, said: “These key distributor agreements represent yet another important milestone in our strategic efforts to expand the reach of our SmartSlide micro-incubation system into new key foreign markets.”
