DUETZ-SYSTEM
Cultivation of bacterial strains, mutants and clone libraries
The Duetz-System is an integrated, easy-to-use, and cost-effective technology platform for the rapid handling and growth of large numbers of microbial strains, clonal libraries, and mutant banks in 24- or 96-well microtiter plates.
The system enables the growth in microplates of thousands of strains simultaneously without excessive repetitive handling: all handling is performed in parallel for sets of 24 or 96 strains. No robotic equipment is required. The system was originally developed and validated at the Institute of Biotechnology of the ETH Zurich.
