Qiagen says its BioSprint DNA plant kits enable rapid and cost-effective automated purification of high-quality plant DNA using BioSprint workstations.
The automated procedure completely removes all contaminants and enzyme inhibitors, and purified DNA is suitable for use in demanding downstream applications, such as PCR and real-time PCR, genotyping, and microsatellite analysis.
BioSprint DNA plant kits use MagAttract magnetic particle technology for purification of highly pure DNA from plant tissue.
Automation on the BioSprint 15 or BioSprint 96 workstation enables easy processing of 10-15 or up to 96 samples per run, respectively.
Cleared lysates are loaded into the workstation, which performs all steps until pure DNA is obtained.
BioSprint DNA plant kits provide all the necessary reagents and plasticware for sample preparation, and are available in different sizes, allowing cost-efficient use of consumables.
Each BioSprint workstation is an open system with a small footprint and is easily operated through a touchpad keyboard.
No external computer is required, saving valuable laboratory space.
Each workstation comes preinstalled with a variety of protocols that enable sample preparation using BioSprint Kits, assuring fast startup and immediate results.
