Application Area: Fully automated extraction of DNA & RNA from FFPE samples
"The Siemens Tissue Preparation System has provided a means of processing up to 48 FFPE samples at a time in high-throughput workflow that is fully automated and Xylene-free. The TPS enables the option to isolate either DNA, RNA, or both from the same specimen in under 4hrs with a high degree of reproducibility between replicates both within and between runs. The resulting DNA is higher in molecular weight compared to other methods of isolation and more amplifiable, which suggests the TPS is largely effective in resolving cross-linking. Therefore, the higher quality DNA & RNA isolates are more amenable to downstream applications. "

The only fully automated solution for extraction of nucleic acids from FFPE and FF tissue. With the Siemens Tissue Preparation System you’ll improve the quality of your extraction, reduce your turnaround time, have maximum flexibility, decrease sample variability, and enhance lab safety.
The Siemens Tissue Preparation Solution includes a Tissue Preparation System and the VERSANT® Tissue Preparation Reagents kit. Using magnetic particle-based isolation and proprietary bead technology, this solution provides a more efficient and reproducible process for the isolation of high-quality nucleic acids from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) and fresh frozen (FF) tissue.
Tissue Preparation System Features:
- Improve the Quality of Your Extraction - Improved reproducibility; better recovery & quality of nucleic acids; co-purification of DNA and RNA; reduced risk of carry-over.
- Reduce Your Turnaround Time - Process up to 48 samples in about 4 hours; obtain DNA and RNA from a single extraction process with a single set of reagents.
- Have Maximum Flexibility - With this solution, you can choose between three different protocols, delivering either total nucleic acid for DNA applications, pure RNA for RNA applications, or both DNA and RNA from one sample for combined analysis.
- Decrease Your Sample Variability - Standardized lysis step for all samples; integrated deparaffinization which excludes tissue loss during standard manual processing.
- Enhance Safety in Your Lab - Hazardous organic solvents are eliminated when you use a fully integrated, fully automated deparaffinization process.
