Can the VIPR reader by Molecular Devices (Aurora) be used with the KX2 robot?

The VIPR reader from Molecular Devices (Aurora) can indeed be automated using the KX2 robot software PAA (Peak Analysis & Automation). PAA provides a comprehensive and flexible platform for integrating and controlling various laboratory instruments, including sophisticated plate readers like the VIPR. By leveraging PAA, tasks such as sample handling, measurement, and data analysis can be fully automated, enabling high-throughput screening and precise analysis of biochemical and cellular assays. This automation significantly enhances workflow efficiency, reduces manual intervention, and ensures consistent, reproducible results across experiments. Integrating the VIPR reader with PAA allows researchers to streamline their experimental workflows, minimize human errors, and accelerate progress in drug discovery, genomics, proteomics, and other life science research fields, ultimately improving productivity and data quality.
