The Nucleic Acid Extraction System is an automated device designed to efficiently extract high-quality DNA and RNA, ideal for subsequent PCR assays. Its optimized inbuilt procedure ensures that magnetic beads remain in a homogeneous suspension, maximizing nucleic acid yields. This system minimizes processing time and reduces the potential for human errors, enhancing the reproducibility of results.
This extraction instrument, the GeneBot XT4, employs magnetic bead separation technology and can extract nucleic acids from a variety of sample types, including saliva, blood, serum, swabs, urine, and animal and plant tissues. It is applicable across various fields such as veterinary diagnostics, human health, aquatic studies, food safety, genetic identity testing, forensic analysis, biomedical research, and gene expression studies.
One of the standout features of this system is its rapid extraction time, completing the process in just 8-13 minutes from sample loading to extraction completion. This efficiency is particularly beneficial for point-of-care testing (POCT) in diverse medical environments, allowing for quick results anytime and anywhere.
The closed-system design ensures that the extraction process occurs in a contamination-free environment, with disinfection facilitated by an ultraviolet lamp. This helps maintain the integrity of the samples and reduces the risk of contamination, ensuring high-quality results.
