Automated Workflows

JFAB’s automated workflows leverage robotics, automation, and microfluidics to accelerate and streamline biomanufacturing research. 

Conversion Pipeline

A miniaturized, semi-automated platform that integrates robotics, analytical instruments, and a centralized data repository to rapidly screen combinations of feedstocks, pretreatment solvents, and microbial conversion hosts across the full biomass-to-fuel workflow. 

Learn more about the Conversion Pipeline.

Feedstocks-to-Fuels and Products (F2F) Pipeline

A miniaturized, semi-automated screening platform that leverages robotics to process hundreds of unique biomass samples simultaneously per batch, automating the transition from raw feedstock to bioconversion. The F2F pipeline provides high-throughput characterizations of feedstock/pretreatment/host interactions to ensure that AI models account for the impact of real-world complexities.

High-Throughput Microfluidic Electroporation (HTME) Platform

Electroporation is a technique used in synthetic biology to deliver genes to cells, but traditional methods are low-throughput and resource intensive. The HTME platform addresses this longstanding bottleneck in synthetic biology with its 384-well electroporation plate (E-plate) and control electronics that are capable of electroporating all wells in under a minute, while also providing individual control of each well.
