WASPLab®
More than a platform for incubation, storage, digitization, and recording of inoculated bacteriology plates, WASPLab® is the nucleus of Copan Full Lab Automation.

Application
Clinical Automation
Express your lab’s full potential by automating your routine

Technology
Digital Microbiology
The main idea of Digital Microbiology is to create a comprehensive ecosystem for laboratory processes, technology, and applications transforming physical objects into a continuous intelligent data stream connecting preanalytical and analytical platforms. This idea is revolutionizing how diagnosis are developed, leading to higher medical value and more efficient lab workflows.

Product
PhenoMATRIX®
PhenoMATRIX® suite of algorithms combines Artificial Intelligence, LIS information, and lab custom rules to analyze colony features and automatically interpret, segregate, tag, and release bacterial culture plates.
