Why Union Biometrica?

Union Biometrica, Inc. is the leading provider of high-throughput systems designed to analyze and sort large and fragile objects, 10-1500 microns in diameter and 10-5000 microns in length! Our cutting-edge technologies ensure specimen viability throughout the process. We have developed techniques for automated handling of C. elegans, zebrafish, cell clusters, organoids and spheroids, mosquitos, soil pests, marine larvae, and many more. Our instruments offer unmatched benefits:

  • Revolutionizing Research: Our COPAS, BioSorter, and VAST systems are transforming genetic and compound screening, functional genomics, target validation, and in vivo toxicology HTS.
  • Time Efficiency: Researchers can analyze, sort, and dispense objects with unparalleled precision and speed, significantly reducing experiment time and enabling new research avenues.
  • Gentle Sample Handling: We specialize in delicate samples such as large cells/cell clusters, small multicellular organisms (e.g., C. elegans, D. melanogaster, D. rerio), beads, seeds (Arabidopsis, tobacco), pollen, and fungi (Aspergillus).
