ION LMD system is one of the laser microdissection systems and a name of device that follows Gravity-Assisted Microdissection method, also known as GAM method. This non-contact laser microdissection system makes cell isolation for further genetic analysis possible. It is the first developed laser microdissection system in Asia.
History
[edit]At first, proto type of ION LMD system was developed in 2004.
The first generation of ION LMD was developed in 2005 and then the second generation(so-called G2) was developed in 2008. At last, the third generation(so-called ION LMD Pro) was developed in 2012.[1]
Manufacturer
[edit]JungWoo F&B was founded in 1994, and offers various factory automation products for clients in semiconductor, consumer electronics, LCD, automotive manufacturing and ship-building industries. In 2003, the company entered the bio-mechanics business for the medical laboratory market and developed an ION LMD system which is utilized in cancer research.[2]
Awards
[edit]This ION LMD system has got some reliable awards.[1]
- 2005 Excellent Machine by Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy, Republic of Korea
- 2005 Best Medical Device by Korean Medical Association
- 2006 New Excellent Product by Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy, Republic of Korea
