Phoretix Array represents the latest evolution of our array assay-based image analysis software and has been developed in line with industry needs and feedback to deliver the highest-quality data in the shortest amount of time.
It offers users the ability to quickly and easily define a square grid of wells for quantification in experiments based within an array/plate format. Once defined, the user has a number of options to remove background “noise” from wells for accurate quantitation, define negative and positive controls, normalize their wells, perform relative quantity calibration and automatically mark wells as present or absent.
In the words of the papers and the forums: quantify the spots on a dot blot, cytokine array membrane, ELISpot plate or slot blot, subtract the background, normalize to your control spots, and do it the same way on the next membrane. You fit the grid to your array layout once, Phoretix Array saves it as a template, and the next image goes straight to a results table. If you are working out how to read dot blot results by eye, this is the step after that.
How to report Phoretix Array in your methods: “Spot intensities were quantified using Phoretix Array (TotalLab Ltd, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK) after background subtraction and normalized to the [reference/positive control] spots.” Replace the bracketed part with the controls on your membrane.
Phoretix Array is the complete solution for analyzing array-based experiments, it offers:
Phoretix Array is compatible with the latest versions of Windows (currently Windows 11), macOS operating systems (up to and including Ventura and M1/M2/M3 and M4 processors) and Linux.
"I really liked the software, it was easy to use and gave me everything I needed for quantification of dot blots. It was the first time I did this kind of experiment and this software saved me a lot of time. I really appreciate your support and I’ll definitely keep Phoretix Array in mind for future projects where it could be useful."

We have distilled our decades of experience into our Phoretix Array automated array analysis software, which has been developed in close collaboration with the pharmaceutical industries needs and feedback to deliver the highest-quality data in the shortest amount of time with the lowest inter-operator variability possible.
Phoretix Array is ideal for researchers who:
Don’t take our word for it, download your free trial today to see how Phoretix Array works with your images, from your own lab.
Phoretix Array is ideal for the quantitative analysis of:
This coverage makes Phoretix Array highly relevant for research and clinical labs performing plate-based and array-based experiments, providing reliable, reproducible quantification and streamlined data workflows.
As with all our software, Phoretix Array has been designed with an intuitive and easy-to-use interface to minimize the time required to train new operators. Our simplified workflow guides the user through their analysis whilst leaving a large, central viewing area of the image and data being analyzed.
If you’d like a demo to see just how easy it is to use, please get in touch.
Phoretix Array offers users incredibly customizable 1-click automatic analysis of array-based images. Whilst you’re working on your analysis, Phoretix Array intelligently captures your analysis settings and allows you to save them as a template file to be used again on your next experiment. When it’s time to analyze your next array simply load the previous template and go straight to your results with no need for manual intervention, saving users a huge amount of manual labor and, importantly, time.
A user can build up an unlimited library of templates to cover all their routine analyses and then share them easily sent with colleagues or even other sites anywhere in the world via something as easy as an email attachment to ensure they’re all running exactly the same analysis. This removes the potential for operator error entirely, greatly reduces inter-operator variability therefore reducing risk, harmonizing multiple global production or research sites and for tech transfer to a CDMO/CMO.
Phoretix Array, along with all TotalLab software, can be integrated into our 21 CFR Part 11/GMP-compliant AuditSafe software to ensure full 21 CFR/ALCOA/GMP/EU Annex 11 compliance for use in regulated industry environments (such as the pharmaceutical industry) where data traceability, accountability, and integrity are critical.
AuditSafe restricts software and data access through secure user sign-ins, granular permissions, audit logs, electronic signatures and image authenticity checks. Click here to find out more.
At TotalLab, we’ve been supporting the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies with highly secure, production-ready versions of our software for over a decade now and enjoy very good relationships across the industry.
We know the importance of properly validated software and how it forms part of your QC journey so we offer a full, in-person IQ/OQ package to accompany the sale of regulated versions of our software
At TotalLab we’ve been working with pharmaceutical and academic life science customers for decades, we know that some of our users prefer offline licensing to enhance security within their sites. This isn’t a problem, all TotalLab software can be activated easily either online or offline.
Our licensing system licenses a whole computer at once, with no restrictions on the number of users who have access to the software on that computer.
Licenses can be purchased singularly for one computer or we also offer discounts on multiple license purchases at the same time if you want to cover multiple computers across your site; enabling hybrid working to perform analysis outside of the lab or to allow multiple analyses to happen at the same time.
We can also support enterprise licensing for full site-wide licenses covering large pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities and research facilities at a significant discount vs buying singular or multiple licenses.
For pricing and any other licensing related queries please contact us.
At TotalLab, we’re the trusted partner of some of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies, so we understand the importance of support and maintenance contracts for software, especially in time-critical and high-value processes.
We take pride in offering the highest level of support and educational resources to all of our customers. Our team of PhD-educated life science experts are dedicated to ensuring that you have the best experience possible all whilst understanding the scientific principles behind your experiments. Pricing for unlimited technical support, training and free updates to the software are included in your license cost – one fee, complete piece of mind. You’ll always be eligible for the latest version of the software on the latest operating systems so there’s no fear of future operating system incompatibility or running insecure, outdated software for critical operations.
We never use call centers or ticketing systems – when you need support you’ll speak directly to a member of the TotalLab team. We understand your time is valuable, which is why we aim to resolve your queries as quickly as possible, ensuring minimal disruption to your workflow.
In addition to our exceptional support, we also offer a range of educational resources. Our extensive library of tutorials and guides will provide you with the knowledge you need to use our software effectively.
