The Magtration® is a technology of handling and separating magnetic particles with a uniquely shaped tip in reactions that use magnetic particles.

The BIST® is named after "Beads array in Single Tip", an analytical tool of the next generation, which enables fully automated multiplex analysis of up to 20 items at the same time. Before the invention of BIST® technology, it had been necessary to analyze each item one by one.

The three-dimensional microarray device, named "Bio-Strand®", is explained as (1) hundreds of DNA probes are immobilized at a constant interval onto a plastic thread or natural thread (diameter: 50 to 100μm, length: 2 to 3 m). (2) This thread is wound onto a core pin and enclosed into a cylindrical tip, which is called Bio-strand® tip. (3) Bio-strand® Technology, like BIST® Technology, automated by using the Magtration® instruments, detects signals with specially designed scanner.
