Best purification / extraction machine I ever used and get excellent result.
Application Area:Purification System provide to process samples for a variety of applications.
"RNA extractions have significant applications in the present day. In terms of molecular biology, RNA extraction is the process of purifying RNA from biological samples. There are several methods to separate RNA from the given samples. This extraction process and gene expression analysis have a lot of impact on the downstream applications. Apart from RNA, we also have methods for DNA extractions. The essential difference between these two methods is the pH value. For DNA extraction, the pH level is around 8, and it is around 5 for RNA."

Our go to extractor!
Application Area:DNA and RNA extractions for molecular diagnostics
"The Kingfisher Flex is so user friendly that our lab bought a second one! Our 96 well platform allows for testing of 94 samples along with a negative and positive extraction control. The instrument ques the user to load the appropriate plate(s) in proper order of a programmed protocol. The closed system with a clear removable dome prevents dust/dirt from entering the testing site. The instrument can be decontaminated with a bactericidal/virucidal wipe."

Great little piece of automation.
Application Area:DNA/RNA extraction
"So far the simplicity and minimal amount of space that it takes up in the lab have been great. Also it seems to very adaptable to other magnetic bead extraction kits which is a big plus. The results so far have been very consistent and it has sped up the overall workflow significantly with operator variability removed from the equation."
