OverviewContributors

Challenge

Opentrons has built lab automation systems for running covid tests. Each system when deployed allows a lab to run up to 2,400 tests per day. In the first half of March they deployed more than 50 robots for covid testing to labs in the US and Europe, and are eager to deploy more places as well.

Description

Opentrons’ COVID-19 Testing System is the best solution for labs running COVID-19 public health surveillance projects that need to immediately scale up to automated operations. Opentrons can install systems that automate up to 2,400 tests per day within days of an order being placed. We are currently deploying this surveillance capability at the Open Medicine Institute in Palo Alto, California, with more surveillance projects soon to follow.
