The Digital Analyzer is a multi-channel epifluorescence scanner configured specifically for use with NanoString’s nCounter Test Kit Cartridges.The nCounter Digital Analyzer collects data by taking images of the immobilized fluorescent reporters in the sample cartridge with a CCD camera through a microscope objective lens. Together,the NanoString nCounter DX Analysis System (liquid handling robot and epifluorescence scanner) delivers direct, multiplexed measurements of gene expression through digital readouts of the relative abundance of mRNA transcripts using the following steps: 1) a hybridization of the mRNA to fluorescent Reporter Probes and Capture Probes, 2) purification of the target/probe complexes using nCounter Prep Plates containing reagents necessary for post-hybridization processing and immobilization onto the nCounter Cartridge on the nCounter Prep Station, and 3) analysis of the nCounter Cartridge on the nCounter Digital Analyzer to provide a test result.
