A message to Cyto-Mine® users

Ensure your single-cell workflow runs without disruption

ADD SUBTITLE

With Sphere Bio entering administration, Cyto-Mine® users are facing uncertainty, not just about service and support, but also about the long-term performance and reliability of their single-cell workflows.

At CYTENA, we understand how critical instrument uptime, application expertise, and continuity are to drug development. We are here to bring certainty and ensure your work continues without compromise.

Why consider an alternative supplier early?

It might sound unreasonable to prioritize the replacement of a well-functioning piece of equipment. However, with Sphere Bio now in administration, status quo comes with growing risks:

Key Features & Benefits - Minize cell loss (1)

END OF SUPPORT

Remote troubleshooting and technical support will end shortly. Parts and technical support will soon be unavailable for maintenance and repairs.

Key Features & Benefits - Fast and gentle dispensing

DOWNTIME RISKS

Service and spare parts for Cyto-Mine® will soon become unavailable. Waiting for an issue to arise to replace a system may incur disruptions and extended delays on key projects.

Key Features & Benefits - Clonal derivation - double assured

PERFORMANCE DRIFT

Even without apparent system issues, without regular preventive maintenance, long-term reproducibility and compliance can be compromised.

Why is CYTENA a great alternative?
