C.STATION™ - End-to-end stable cell line development workflow

Revolutionize cell line development (CLD) workflows with CYTENA’s C.STATION. This turnkey automated solution offers efficient single cell isolation, documented clonality assurance, high producer/high-quality clone enrichment, increased throughput, process consistency, and improved data traceability and integrity.

C.STATION™ - Fully automated stable cell line development

Optimize and streamline entire cell line development (CLD) workflows within this automated, intuitively designed workstation. From single-cell cloning of transfected cells to selecting high-producing clones for upscaling, the all-new C.STATION fully automates stable CLD for monoclonal antibody production.

UP.SIGHT™ - The ultimate upgrade in Cell Line Development

The UP.SIGHT streamlines cell line development (CLD) workflows by automating labor-intensive and time-consuming steps. We have combined our patented, highly efficient, fast and gentle single-cell dispensing technology with a superfast, high-quality imaging system that provides a full well image and no need for image stitching. Our all-in-one solution enables nozzle imaging and 3D Full Well Imaging for double assurance of clonality from two independent optical apparatuses, leading to a probability of clonality 99.99%.

UP.SIGHT™ - Double assurance of clonality

The UP.SIGHT streamlines cell line development (CLD) workflows by automating labor-intensive and time-consuming steps. 8 out of 10 of the best-selling drugs worldwide are developed using biologics. Here is how the UP.SIGHT enables you to optimize your cell line development workflow. Our all-in-one solution enables nozzle imaging and 3D Full Well Imaging for double assurance of clonality from two independent optical apparatuses, leading to a probability of clonality 99.99%.

C.WASH™ - Optimize Reproducibility and Workflows with a Non-Contact Plate Washer

CYTENA’s C.WASH non-contact plate washer and liquid dispenser uses centrifugal force to wash your microwell plates.

EZHold - Lid Holder Operation

The EZHold Lid Holders are accessories for the C.BIRD and S.NEST microbioreactors that keep lids from coming into direct contact with microwell plates. With the EZHold in place, you can easily add supplements or other components to wells while minimizing sample cross contamination.

S.NEST™ - The next-generation microbioreactor for Cell Line Development

Accelerate your cell line development workflow with our revolutionary cell culture technology As the biopharmaceutical industry expands, companies are looking for competitive advantages in cell line development. The S.NEST, a high-throughput microbioreactor with CO2 incubator functions, shortens the process time for cell upscaling, provides a better microscale environment for cell growth, and brings more efficiency to cell line selection.

Single-cell dispensing as easy, efficient and gentle as it gets

The workflow for single-cell isolation with our products is as easy and comfortable as possible. Switch on the instrument, fill you sample in the disposable cartridge, place the cartridge in the instrument, setup your experiment by defining size, roundness and fluorescent intensity of your desired cells and click start. A few minutes later you’ll have a 96 or 384 well plate filled with cells and get a image series for each well/cell which are used to proof clonality to the regulatory.

CELLECYTE X™ - Open the Door to Live Cell Imaging

Open the door to live cell imaging with the CELLCYTE X, a live cell imager that lives inside your incubator. The CELLCYTE X offers both real-time imaging and data analysis, allowing you to maximize throughput and streamline workflows.

CELLCYTE X™ - Real-time Live Cell Imaging from Inside Your Incubator

The CELLCYTE X, a live cell imager hosted within the incubator, allows researchers to rewind and replay images that are aquired from multiple time points. The real-time imaging enables scientists to better follow the seqence of biological events and gather a comprehensive picture of cell kinetics.

C.BIRD™ - Optimize cell culture environments in 96-/24-well plates

The C.BIRD is a high-throughput microbioreactor for parallel cultivations in 96-well plates that brings production bioreactor conditions to the 150 to 1600 µL scale. It enables early identification of the highest producing and most stable clones in order to reduce later passaging steps and efforts of current scaling-up process.

S.NEST™ - Next-Generation Microbioreactor Launch Video

The S.NEST microbioreactor, a revolution for cell line development, optimizes high-throughput cell culturing with customizable mixing levels, innovative features for minimizing the impact of evaporation, and real-time monitoring of pH and dissolved oxygen levels. The game changer you’ve been waiting for is here!

C.WASH™ - CYTENA's non-contact plate washer and liquid dispenser

Increase your workflow with a faster processing time! C.WASH™ is our innovative plate washer designed for automated, rapid and highly reproducible washing of the entire 96-, 384-, and 1536-well plates.​ It uses centrifugal forces to remove liquids from well plates without needles or pipette tips. Because of these unique properties, C.WASH is the perfect solution for cell-based assays and bead-based nucleic acid purification.

Innovator of the Year Award 2022

In Summer 2022, CYTENA GmbH won the TOP 100 innovation award!

C.WASH™ - An automated bead-based DNA purification system

A major challenge in sequencing labs is the amount of time spent manually cleaning magnetic beads. The C.WASH™ is an automated bead-based DNA purification system that accelerates and simplifies NGS library preparation workflows. It also reduces the use of pipette tips and prevents cross-sample contamination of PCR-amplified cDNA fragments as effectively as other automated liquid handlers.
