VIENNA, May 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- MGI Tech Co., Ltd. (MGI), a company committed to developing core tools and technologies that drive innovation in life sciences, presented its latest advancements in laboratory automation and integrated workflow solutions at SLAS 2026 in Vienna, Austria.

At this year's event, MGI Tech highlighted a portfolio of intelligent automation and multi-omics solutions designed to accelerate research efficiency, simplify complex workflows, and empower emerging applications in proteomics and integrated laboratory automation.
PrepALL-pP8G: Advancing Single-Cell Proteomics Automation
As an extension of the PrepALL platform, PrepALL-pP8G expands its application into the field of single-cell proteomics, primarily for sample pretreatment. A key attribute of the PrepALL platform is its inherent flexibility, allowing seamless integration with external devices to broaden its application scope,of which the PrepALL-pP8G is a prime example. Designed to highly automate and streamline complex proteomics workflows, the system combines thermal inkjet printing technology with high-precision ultra-low volume dispensing to enable a fully integrated workflow from single-cell sorting to proteomics sample preparation. The official European launch is expected in the second half of this year.
Featuring 640 independent parallel nozzles and advanced AI-assisted camera vision recognition, the PrepALL-pP8G enables ultra-high throughput processing of 384-well plates in just minutes while preserving cell viability and protein integrity through gentle, electrical-deflection-free sorting. The platform supports label-free, labeled, and conventional proteomics workflows, making it suitable for applications including tumor heterogeneity research, rare cell analysis, organoid and stem cell research, and multi-omics integration.
GenSIRO48: Enabling Next-Generation Clinical Automation
Making its first international debut, MGI Tech also presented the SIRO48, an advanced fully automated sample processing system designed to deliver a "Sample In, Report Out" solution that accelerates and simplifies complex sample processing workflows. The system integrates nucleic acid purification, fragmentation, end repair, adapter ligation, PCR amplification, and library purification & quality control in a single workflow.
Engineered to evolve from step-by-step manual operations to integrated full-process closed loop, multi-step manual intervention to full-process unattended execution, and low-throughput single-sample processing to high-throughput parallel processing of 48 samples, it is purpose-built for seamless integration into real-world clinical molecular diagnosis, public health prevention and control, and life science research scenarios. This system enables a transformative leap in sequencing library preparation—from "isolated manual operations" to "full-chain intelligent automation".
VisiOmics (PMIF-20RS): Boosting Spatial Proteomics Exploration in Translational Medicine
MGI Tech was also showcasing the PMIF VisiOmics (PMIF-20RS), a fully automated staining and imaging system making its European debut. It leverages multiplex immune fluorescence (mIF) technology to capture precise spatial protein expression data in tissue sections. Integrated with an AI-powered analysis platform for accurate cell segmentation, phenotyping, and spatial mapping, it provides a complete workflow solution for applications in tumor classification, prognosis, tumor microenvironment analysis, and translational research. The official European launch of VisiOmics is also expected to take place in the second half of this year.
Driving the Future of Intelligent Laboratory Automation
"SLAS provides an excellent platform to demonstrate how intelligent automation is transforming life science research and clinical laboratory operations," said a spokesperson for MGI Tech. "Our latest solutions are designed to help laboratories overcome workflow complexity, improve scalability, and accelerate scientific discovery across rapidly evolving research areas such as single-cell proteomics and organoid biology."

Bitcoin hat am Montag seine jüngste Erholung fortgesetzt und erstmals seit Januar wieder die Marke von 80.000 US-Dollar überschritten. Am Morgen notierte die grösste Kryptowährung bei rund 80.466 Dollar und legte damit innerhalb von 24 Stunden um etwa 2,9 Prozent zu. Marktbeobachter verweisen auf ein spürbar freundlicheres Umfeld für risikoreichere Anlagen, das die Nachfrage nach digitalen Assets wie Bitcoin stützt.
Analyst Timo Emden führt den jüngsten Kurssprung insbesondere auf die allgemein höhere Risikobereitschaft der Investoren zurück. An den Aktienmärkten hatten zuletzt besser als erwartet ausgefallene Unternehmensgewinne im Technologiesektor für Rückenwind gesorgt. Parallel dazu hatte sich der asiatische Aktienindex von MSCI seinem Rekordhoch angenähert, das im Februar vor der Zuspitzung der geopolitischen Lage im Nahen Osten erreicht worden war. Diese Mischung habe laut Marktteilnehmern die Stimmung für wachstums- und technologieorientierte Anlagen aufgehellt – wovon auch Kryptowährungen profitieren.
Einen zusätzlichen Schub erhielt Bitcoin durch die Auflösung von Wetten auf fallende Kurse. Anleger, die auf sinkende Preise gesetzt hatten, sahen sich angesichts des anziehenden Marktes gezwungen, ihre Short-Positionen einzudecken. Diese Rückkäufe wirken wie zusätzliche Kauforders und können Aufwärtsbewegungen verstärken. Ein solcher Short-Squeeze habe die Dynamik nach oben deutlich erhöht, heisst es aus dem Marktumfeld.
Aus technischer Sicht könnte das Überschreiten der 80.000-Dollar-Marke weitere Bedeutung entfalten. Emden zufolge gilt diese Schwelle als wichtiger Widerstand, dessen Überwindung von vielen Marktteilnehmern als Befreiungsschlag wahrgenommen wird. Der Bruch eines derartigen Niveaus kann neue Käuferschichten anziehen, die auf eine Fortsetzung der Rally setzen. Ob sich der Aufwärtstrend verstetigt, dürfte jedoch davon abhängen, ob das freundlichere Sentiment an den globalen Finanzmärkten anhält und ob es zu erneuten Gewinnmitnahmen nach dem schnellen Anstieg kommt.
