Tecan and Promega have developed a turnkey workstation for fully automated extraction of gDNA.
The Freedom EVO HSM workstation provides walkaway extraction of gDNA from large volume blood samples using Promega’s ReliaPrep Large Volume HT gDNA Isolation System.
The Freedom EVO - HSM workstation is designed to streamline biobanking workflows, offering intelligent one-tube gDNA extraction from up to 32 samples in less than four hours.
The compact system is controlled by Tecan’s TouchTools touchscreen interface, and features pre-installed protocols that have been tested and verified by Promega.
Using the platform’s liquid level detection function, the system is able to automatically calculate the reagent volumes for each sample.
According the Tecan, this ensures efficient walkaway extraction of high quality DNA from 1-10 ml of blood and meets the specific requirements of next generation sequencing methods.
