Phalanx used the most advanced inkjet technology available in the design of PhalanxJet, thus the system is able to deliver uniform spots onto pre-treated glass slide in a highly reproducible manner. PhalanxJet is designed specifically to minimize the chance of cross-contamination between probes. Each PhalanxJet has 200 reservoirs to hold 200 different probes, and it is able to dispense each probe from its own reservoir without mixing with other probes.

PhalanxArray Technology pushes the envelope of microarray printing system with its unprecedented production volume and capacity. PhalanxArray is capable of hosting 200 perfectly aligned PhalanxJets and printing 40,000 uniform spots per slide. Our soon to be operational high capacity foundry is capable of printing up to 1,000,000 high-density slides per year, a speed and volume that is 100 times better than the most advanced arraying process to date.

PhalanxSlide Technology is based on a unique hydrophobic surface chemistry that utilizes highly active 2D/3D functional groups that react rapidly with polynucleotide probes to form stable linkages. This surface chemistry allows us to print slides with high probe binding capacity, low background noise, and excellent uniformity of spots. Phalanx also uses the same proven manufacturing processes used in the production of compact discs to manufacture the slides, thus providing consistent surface coating on each slide.

Quality is Phalanx' top priority, thus we have developed a manufacturing quality assurance system that is unmatched in the industry. Our innovative quality assurance process assures the homogeneity and the identity of each polynucleotide probe printed, and enables optical inspection and rejection of defective slides with missing spots or imprecise alignment.
