MBC BioLabs Announces New Partnership with Curiox

[San Francisco, CA – September 3, 2026] – MBC BioLabs is proud to welcome Curiox Biosystems as its newest partner, expanding the range of cutting-edge instrumentation available to our resident companies and reinforcing our commitment to helping life-science startups move faster.
Curiox will place its Pluto LT Workstation and Pluto Alpha on-site, giving MBC BioLabs residents hands-on access to automated, centrifuge-free flow cytometry sample preparation. For early-stage teams, that means less time at the bench, fewer manual steps, and more reproducible results run after run — a meaningful edge when every experiment counts.
Residents interested in incorporating the Pluto workstations into their workflows are encouraged to reach out to the Curiox team to learn more.
