Date:2017-04-22 11:28:45
PlantTrak Hx is a hand-held plant leaf disc sampling and encoding system for laboratory or field use. It uses a Trimble handheld terminal and is equipped with a barcode reader to record the location, relationships and other data of the sample.PlantTrak Hx stores collected samples in a white transparent sample plate, and transfers the samples into a 96-well plate with PlantTrak Sx or Mx.The supporting software can automatically associate samples with plant positioning information (barcode & GPS positioning information), allowing you to obtain the correct sample information.

Main functions










ComeRapidly and high throughput to collect leaf slices of field or greenhouse plants and collect them into specially made microplates:

ComeCan be used for field or greenhouse sampling, suitable for cereals, cotton, beans, etc.

ComeLightweight, portable, easy to use, can improve work efficiency, reduce human errors, and prevent cross-infection

ComeApplied to gene analysis or selection of breeding sampling

ComeEach sample size can reach 1188

ComeRelated gene samples and sampling positions through barcode or GPS information

ComeBar code plants in fields or greenhouse

ComeThe following information can be traced: sample source, sample source area, growth location, growth conditions/demand, plant age and growth stage, etc.

ComeMission mode: field mode, greenhouse mode, free mode
