Automation
The DYNEX AGILITY® utilizes the proven versatility of ELISA’s core technology in a powerful, fully automated platform, for true ELISA optimization. Advanced robotic processing delivers unparalleled precision while eliminating nearly all manual steps, so AGILITY® is efficient and reliable – freeing you and your staff to be as productive as possible, while significantly reducing your cost per test.
- Full, walkaway processing from the beginning of testing
- Up to 16 SmartKit® carriers stored on-board for simultaneous runs
- Flexible throughput allows up to 12 plates on-board at once
- Utilizes three precision robotic arms – one for sample pipetting, one for reagent pipetting and another for transporting plates and consumables, to obtain maximum process efficiency
Ease of Use
With an intelligent design that emphasizes simplicity, AGILITY® provides an extremely intuitive, easy-to-use interface. And with continuous sample loading, workflow is streamlined for maximum efficiency and productivity.
- Eliminates most of ELISA’s labor-intensive, front-end setup
- Reduces hands-on time by two-thirds of typical open systems
- Barcoding eliminates manual data input
- Assesses testing requirements and develops an efficient work list
- Comprehensive LIMS integration
- Continuous sample loading allows operators to begin loading and running microplates as they are ready, instead of all at once
Reagent Loading
AGILITY® requires the least hands-on time in its category. In part, this advantage is made possible by AGILITY® SmartKits®, an innovative new approach to ELISA testing. SmartKits® are direct-load reagent kits, allowing everything to be loaded onto the system at the same time, in one easy step. All consumables for each assay are already prepackaged when SmartKits are purchased from our growing list of major reagent partners.
- Eliminates nearly all manual liquid-transfer steps
- Frees up significant labor time and allows for multitasking
- Illuminated, color-coded access positions allow simple loading of all kits, tips, microplates and other consumable items, preventing loading errors
- 2D barcodes printed on kits provide accurate and secure information
- Inventory tracking allows for maximum materials efficiency
- Consumables are stored on-board, including up to 16 AGILITY SmartKits®
Hands-On Time
AGILITY’s streamlined front-end preparation minimizes hands-on reagent loading versus traditional open systems, significantly reducing overall assay times. Walkaway, right away.
Productivity
The intuitive design of the AGILITY® minimizes the potential for human error and greatly reduces the need for on-the-job training. The user interface enables effortless navigation, and the system supports several major error-proofing advances, including a comprehensive monitoring system to measure consumable levels and extensive barcoding to eliminate manual data entry.
Intelligence
- Threshold Results: Threshold results allow programmable quality control equations based on arithmetic, statistical or Boolean calculations.
- Washer Status: The washer status screen reports waste, washer fluid and clean fluid levels with easy-to-understand quantitative graphics.
- Dashboard: On an interactive touchscreen the Agility dashboard is extremely easy-to-read, follow and understand. Intuitive graphics provide a full overview of every aspect of operation, from the number of tests scheduled to the amount of room remaining in the waste containers.
SmartKits®
The New Standard in ELISA Kit Packaging
DYNEX® Technologies redefined the possibilities for productivity and cost-effectiveness in ELISA testing with the introduction of AGILITY,® our fully automated microplate testing system.
AGILITY® owes much of its success to our innovative SmartKit® technology, a simple, direct-load solution to front-end preparation that reduces technician time and potential for costly data entry
errors, while improving ease-of-use and enhancing the product offerings of reagent kit manufacturers.
SmartKits® include four main components: the consumable bottles of any given reagent kit, a 2D barcode with lot-specific assay information, an insert for holding reagent bottles and a cap
holder for reagent bottle caps. Once caps are removed and stored in the cap holder, the SmartKit® is placed directly into the AGILITY® for testing.

How AGILITY® Innovates ELISA Testing
The fully automated nature of AGILITY®‘s design offers a variety of tremendous advantages in a laboratory setting. Thanks to robotic technology and a vanguard approach, labs can utilize this system to do the manual work of pipetting, diluting, washing, incubation (with or without shaking) and data reading. Previously, each step would need an operator on-hand to closely monitor and advance each step. Today, AGILITY®‘s breakthrough design provides the least hands-on time in its category. This improvement allows labs to:
- Streamline operations: Our SmartKit® packaging form provides a direct-load solution to front-end preparation steps. With this new design, you can load everything onto the system in one prepackaged move, eliminating your need for transfer steps while freeing up your labor time.
- Improve the quality of work: Despite the intelligence of this new technology, it also manages to stay simple. An easy-to-use and intuitive design means users can navigate the interface seamlessly. As a result, you’ll experience limited potential for human error and require minimal training to operate the system properly.
- Save time and costs: The objective of AGILITY® is centered around productivity. You can significantly reduce your hands-on time while eliminating the need for manual data input and front-end setup.
