If you are looking for an alternative to process your samples and improve your workflow efficiency and scalability, the answer is magnetic bead purification kits. These kits are perfect for automating production of high-quality genomic DNA, higher consistency and reduced probability for human error within lesser time than manual processes. If you need to process a large number of samples, high throughput extraction methods are the best.

The demand for automated DNA extraction has risen dramatically over the past 2-3 years. Such DNA extraction is often used in highly sensitive and robust techniques, such as qPCR and Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS). Any inconsistencies can negatively impact results and resultant data.

Magnetic Bead-Based Purification

Magnetic bead-based purification utilizes magnetic particles, 0.5 and 10 μm in diameter. It is a reliable DNA, RNA, proteins extraction method for a number of sample types. It is ideal for high-throughput automation since it doesn’t involve centrifugation or other time-consuming steps.

Why is it beneficial to automate Nucleic Acid Extraction?

  • Consistent extraction process – Automated magnetic bead extraction protocols can achieve a uniform cycle of processing steps, such as bind, wash and elute.
  • Minimal cross-contamination and high reproducibility – Less sample handling reduces the risk of contamination and sample carryover.
  • Throughput and scope – With automated nucleic acid extraction, you can process a larger sample number faster. Since you can test a number of different variables easily, it also allows you to widen the scope of your research.
  • Time-saving. Manual extractions require extreme care. Automation allows you save time since all the repetitive tasks are automated.
  • Smooth workflow. Depending on the automation machine, you can complete the nucleic acid extraction protocol resulting in flawless samples for the downstream applications.
