Explore Sophion’s Technology Access Program

Through our Technology Access Program (TAP), we offer access to Sophion’s automated patch clamp technology and experts of application and research scientists. We offer advanced training, technology transfer and capacity building services.

We can assist you with setting up new and complex assays, provide support in running demanding experiments and assist you with large-scale screening campaigns, etc. Our aim is to help our new customers in your ion channel research projects and offer trials and testing possibilities before making the decision to purchase a Sophion instrument.

Access to our TAP services can either be a pay per service or in a collaboration to ensure valuable knowledge transfer to your organization. We conduct TAP services under strict confidentiality.

Improve your laboratory efficiency with assay optimization

Optimizing assays can help laboratories improve the quality, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness of their experiment procedures. By introducing accuracy and reliability into your laboratory, you will be able to increase your throughput and improve the efficiency of your assay workflow.

With Sophion Bioscience as your service partner, you benefit from a complete solution for optimizing your cell lines and assays for the highest quality and success rates. We offer services to support you with cell line and assay optimization. Our team of experienced application scientists can assist you with setting up new and complex assays, which are optimized for your preferred choice of cell lines on our automated patch clamp platforms. As part of our offering to you, we can also provide the cell lines you require for your research.

We offer cell line optimization, including:

  • 10 vials of optimized cryopreserved cells
  • SOP for optimized cell culturing
  • Customized instrument assay protocols

We offer assay optimization, including:

  • Tailored recipes and assay protocols
  • Validation of electrophysiological ion channel properties
  • High quality success rate data

Our services teams are committed to helping you get the most out of your Sophion instruments. With our services, we are by your side whenever you need us.

  • "In the past, if I was lucky, I could fully test one compound for full dose responses on one ion channel in one day. Now I can test eight compounds on three ion channels and get full dose responses. It’s a huge difference"

    Nina Ottosson, Senior Research Coordinator, Linköping University, Department of Biomedical and Clinical Sciences, Division of Neurobiology

  • "We let Qube 384 run our large screening campaigns unattended during the night, so we can develop new assays on the same instruments during the day"

    Juha Kammonen, Charles River Laboratories, Senior Research Leader Early Discovery

  • "For over a decade, we have used Sophion QPatch to support hit-to-lead and lead optimization, in addition to cardiac safety profiling. The addition of a QPatch II and a Qube 384 upgrades and extends our capacity for these efforts and now adds a Sophion platform for electrophysiology-based high-throughput screening. "

    Caterina Virginio, PhD, Evotec, Discovery Electrophysiology Senior Manager

  • "A good field service and application support from Sophion enable us to sustain our operations with minimal interruption or unnecessary delays"

    Caterina Virginio, PhD, Evotec, Discovery Electrophysiology Senior Manager

  • "Our collaboration with Sophion and access to their expertise is a real-world example of what you can achieve with automated patch clamping and an expert supplier"

    Fredrik Elinder, Professor, Linköping University, Department of Biomedical and Clinical Sciences, Division of Neurobiology
