The nCounter System

The complete nCounter system consists of two instruments:

1. PrepStation (liquid handling robot), used to purify ternary complexes obtained during the hybridization, remove unhybridized free probes and immobilize the complexes into the cartridge for subsequent image acquisition.

2. nCounter (image acquisition instrument), used to scan the cartridge and generate raw data (counts).
