LGC oKtopure<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n The oKtopure\u2122 is a fully automated nucleic acid extraction platform that combines high-throughput automation with the proprietary sbeadex\u2122 magnetic bead based extraction chemistry for high quality, high yield extraction. The final aqueous wash used in the sbeadex extraction protocols enables the delivery of nucleic preparations ideal for downstream applications such as SNP genotyping and NGS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n KingFisher Flex<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Thermo Scientific KingFisher Flex is a versatile benchtop automated extraction instrument in the lab for 24 or 96 samples per run. It offers consistent medium- to high-throughput extraction and purification of DNA, RNA, proteins, and cells.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Agilent 4200 Tapestation<\/strong> Agilent 4200 Tapestation<\/strong> ThermoFisher Fluoroskan System<\/strong> Sage BluePippin <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n The BluePippin is an electrophoresis platform capable of size-selecting DNA fragments and automatically collects the fractions in buffer according to the user-specified size range. With up to 5 samples per run, it is commonly used to size-select next generation sequencing libraries. It is capable of performing narrow size selections from 50bp to 50kb within a few hours. Customers may drop off samples to be run by GSL personnel at either<\/em> the Main GSL facility (Thomas Hall, Central Campus) or the Plant Genotyping Facility (Plant Sciences Building, Centennial Campus).

Available at Main GSL Facility (Thomas Hall)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n
The GSL offers DNA sample QC on Agilent\u2019s newest TapeStation 4200 platform. This instrument performs size and integrity analysis (QC) and quantification of nucleic acids. Instead of chips, the TapeStation system uses credit card-sized, disposable Agilent ScreenTape available for RNA, DNA (up to 10kb) or High Molecular Weight DNA (up to 60 kb).<\/p>\n\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
