New COVID-19 testrobot developed through public-private partnership

The Hubrecht Institute and Genmab have developed a new robot, the STRIP-1 - testrobot, that can process up to 20,000 samples for COVID-19 testing per 24 hours. This makes the STRIP-1 much faster than all other systems used to date. After initial development, the robot was further developed and prepared for diagnostic use by PAMM medical microbiology laboratory, Tecan and Bodegro. The robot is financed by the Dutch government and can also be used in future pandemics.

Many institutions worked together on this project, among which Bodegro, Genmab, Hubrecht Institute (KNAW), Health Holland, PAMM, Oncode Institute, Sanquin, Tecan, the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate, the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport.
