OUR TECHNOLOGY
A precise cell-handling platform for 3D cell cultures.
Our breakthrough technology
A novel combination of optical tweezers, microfluidics, and machine intelligence.
We combine the precision of laser optics, the environmental control of microfluidics, and AI automation to provide a 3D-cell-culture-handling platform that produces reliable results, again and again, without altering the cellular biology of assay samples.

How it works
SCREEN

ISOLATE

Desired cell clusters are isolated in wells for downstream assays. Lucero’s optical tweezers have the precision to ensure the population of each well with a single cell cluster in order to reduce the unnecessary usage of costly or rare cells while enabling the reproducibility of relevant data.
POSITION

Cell clusters are placed in a known location within each well. Locations can be communicated to downstream instruments, such as imaging systems, to reduce the time it takes to locate each cluster and get it into focus. 3D control in wells also allows you to pattern multiple clusters in each well to observe how they interact in real time.
