Genomic DNA extraction

Magnetic bead technology for automated genomic DNA extraction

Genomic DNA extraction workflows often rely on spin columns and centrifugation, which can complicate automation. Magnetic bead-based workflows use magnetic separation instead of centrifugation, enabling automated genomic DNA extraction with reduced manual handling while maintaining consistent DNA purities and yields.

Integrated solutions for automated magnetic bead DNA extraction:

• Extraction kit – Clean Blood & Tissue DNA Kit
• Magnetic stand – HEATMAG module for temperature-controlled bead capture and separation, optimizing sample lysis and elution
• Liquid handling platform – ASSIST PLUS pipetting robot for automating repetitive pipetting steps
