  PRODUCT
    GeneChip® System 3000Dx
   

The GeneChip® System 3000Dx (GCS 3000Dx) is the first microarray instrumentation system for molecular diagnostic laboratories. The system consists of the FS450Dx Fluidics Station, which automates hybridization, washing and staining of the array; the GCS 3000Dx Scanner with AutoLoader Dx, which allows you to load 48 microarrays to be scanned without operator intervention; and a workstation with GCOSDx software.

The GCS 3000Dx is 510(k) cleared and CE marked for in vitro diagnostic use in conjunction with the Roche Diagnostics AmpliChip CYP450 Test. The AmpliChip CYP450 Test is the first microarray-based diagnostic test and the first product to be released through the Powered by Affymetrix partnership between Affymetrix and Roche Diagnostics.
