I want to Automate Throughput

NGS fragment analysis is a critical step during the processing of DNA libraries prior to sequencing. Accurate quantity and quality analysis of fragments is necessary to ensure that satisfactory reads are generated off the Next Gen Sequencers.

Automating both sample handling as well as results analysis would decrease the time to results and, more importantly, free up resources for bigger tasks. Other analytical instruments - such as lab-on-a-chip systems - force end-users to undergo repetitive pipetting for manual chip priming and work with tiny chips for manual sample loading.

By comparison, the AdvanCE™ FS Nucleic Acids Analyzer completely automates operation to create a simplified, more consistent workflow. Improving workflow not only saves time, but money as well. Those savings can then be re-invested to make the whole lab more efficient and effective.

The AdvanCE™ FS Nucleic Acids Analyzer allows workflow to be streamlined as well as automated by decreasing the number of sample handling steps and by eliminating pipetting steps. Additionally, if sample throughput is high enough, the AdvanCE™ FS Nucleic Acids Analyzer can be interfaced with a robot to reduce manual intervention completely.

The following factors allow the AdvanCE™ FS Nucleic Acids Analyzer to automate NGS fragment analysis:

1. Automated gel priming of capillary array.
2. Robotics interface capable.
3. PROSize™, an intuitive analytical software package that aids in results processing.
