Automated nucleic acid workstation

Automated nucleic acid workstation

Product overview

Designed with rotary nucleic acid extraction technology, PANA9600S is the latest generation of automated nucleic acid workstation independently developed by Tianlong, with the support by the National Special Fund for Major Scientific Instrument Development (No. 2012YQ030261). The workstation integrates sample loading, nucleic acid extraction, PCR system construction and many other functions in one, and can achieve the automated operation of the whole process. Equipped with high performance of the specific nucleic acid extraction kits, this instrument can extract the required nucleic acids from a wide range of samples such as whole blood, serum/plasma, swab solution, urine, etc. in a shorter time to ensure the specific downstream applications.

Features:

Reliable pollution control ensured by rotary nucleic acid extraction technology used with droplet capture, experimental partitioning, air filtration, UV disinfection and other measures.

Fast and high throughput: automated loading, nucleic acid extraction and PCR system setup for 96 samples within 70min.

Highly flexible and adaptable: can be applied with single-strip kits, 3- to 6-well extraction available to process various sample types; 4 PCR reaction systems can be set up simultaneously.  

Accurate and reliable: precise sample loading, accurate temperature control, provide stable and reliable test results with reagents and consumables independently developed by Tianlong.

Human-centered design, automated operation:  pre-encapsulated extraction kits, and automated preparation of the PCR systems. Real whole-process automation with automatic dilution of proteinase K, and automatic sample retention of the original sample and the nucleic acid extracted, among other easy-to-use design.
