The Twister &! RapidPlate Integrated System by TANabe, or TRISTAN, consists of a 96-channel dispenser (Rapid-Plate 96), a plate reader (V-MAX), and a simple robot arm (Twister). We developed TRISTAN for effectively conducting a homogeneous assay. Although this system accommodates fewer than 20 microplates, it has several advantages over conventional robotic systems for high-throughput screening in the following aspects: parameter setting, running time, hardware errors, manpower, and cost-effectiveness. The system proved to be effective and efficient for homogeneous assays.
