Mabtech ASTOR™ELISpot’s best friend

Anyone can playIt is a plug-and-play instrument; just load your plate and press “Read”. You will still have the ability to decide which spots you consider relevant, using the Size and Intensity sliders – similar to gating relevant populations in flow cytometry – but most users will select the default settings as they are often appropriate and the data will be available immediately.

Loyal teammate

You can trust the data generated from ASTOR. The instrument has no problems identifying distinct spots in a linear fashion even with more than 3000 spots per well, allowing correct spot processing also for example for positive controls. The reliable data acquisition is shown in the graphs to the right.

Get more doneAn overlooked time-consuming aspect of ELISpot is data analysis. With reliable data and unprecedented export capabilities, the time from data acquisition to ready-made analysis has been

reduced to a minimum. This is the type of high throughput we know our customers have been longing for, as it facilitates larger studies

ASTOR and IRISWe love ELISpot, and we know that many of our customers do too. We built Mabtech ASTOR™ for all of us.

Mabtech ASTOR™ is the little brother to Mabtech IRIS™ and is based on the same framework. The readers are developed by Mabtech, together with top engineers, and include a novel spot-counting algorithm, RAWspot™ technology. This innovation combined with hardware and easy-to-use software provides instruments that are optimal for spot analysis.
