The Genetix HT 96 Purifier Machine is a device used for purifying and isolating nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA, typically used in molecular biology and genetic research. It's often employed in high-throughput applications where multiple samples need to be processed efficiently.
1. High-Throughput Capability:
- 96-Well Plate Format: Allows for the simultaneous processing of 96 samples, making it suitable for large-scale experiments and screenings.
2. Purification Technology:
- Automated Liquid Handling: Uses advanced liquid handling systems to accurately transfer liquids and reagents between wells.
- Column-Based Purification: Use spin columns or magnetic beads for the isolation of nucleic acids from samples.
3. User Interface:
- Touchscreen or Computer Interface: Provides an easy-to-use interface for setting up protocols, monitoring progress, and reviewing results.
4. Flexibility:
- Programmable Protocols: Allows customization of purification protocols to suit different types of samples and applications.
5. Integration:
- Lab Automation: This can be integrated with other laboratory automation systems for streamlined workflows.
1. Preparation:
- Sample and Reagent Setup: Load your samples and reagents into the appropriate wells of the 96-well plate or other designated formats.
2. Protocol Selection:
- Choose or Design Protocol: Select from pre-programmed protocols or design a custom protocol based on your specific needs.
3. Running the Purification:
- Start the Process: Initiate the purification process through the user interface. The machine will automate the steps required for nucleic acid isolation.
4. Result Collection:
- Retrieve Purified Nucleic Acids: After completion, collect the purified nucleic acids from the output wells or tubes.
