Qiacube Connect 自動核酸抽出装置 – 中古

QIAcube Connect performs the steps of lysis, binding, washing, and elution fully automatically with centrifuge column for processing DNA samples, RNA, and proteins, automatic processing of over 80 kits, and customer protocols.

QIAcube Connect, a new concept of nucleic acid extraction equipment, realizes automation by utilizing the advantages of QIAGEN spin-column technology, which has been loved for a long time as a global standard for DNA/RNA prep.

QIAcube Connect has built-in devices used in the manual experiment process and implemented the same automation as the manual by using the QIAGEN spin-column kit as it is. Everything is done in the equipment from sample lysis to elution, enabling “realization of personal automation equipment” with a small volume and economical price.

QIAcube Connect is redefining the benefits of automated sample processing. With advanced digital capabilities and connectivity, QIAcube Connect enables research labs to fully automate and track their popular QIAGEN spin-column purification and extraction protocols with the push of a button.

QIAcube Connect offers an augmented user interface that provides a new dimension of utility. Researchers can stay connected to their instrument via the integrated display and remotely with a tablet (included), which contains the pre-installed QIAcube Connect app, allowing for fast response times and monitoring runs while away.

Automatic Nucleic Acid Extractor (12 samples)

Molecular biology has a significant impact on the medical sciences. Processes like nucleic acid extractions and automated purifications are useful in several downstream applications of molecular biology. Closed architecture liquid handling platforms ease the extraction processes and aid in these applications. 

A noteworthy system with automated extraction and purification processes is the Qiacube Connect from Qiagen manufacturers. These extraction systems ease the RT-PCR testing for the COVID-19 detection alongside several other applications. The following information delineates the Qiacube system and its applications. 

Qiacube Connect Purification System: 

Qiacube, as mentioned above, is one remarkable extraction and purification system from the Qiagen company. These systems are intended to be operated by trained professionals for molecular biology applications and extractions of nucleic acids from different samples. 

仕様 

The following are the device specifications of the Qiacube Connect system. 

• Dimensions/ Size – 65 x 58 x 62 cm. 
• Weight – 71.5 kg. 
• Capacity – up to 12 samples per run 
• Operating Temperature – 18-28 degrees centigrade 

特徴 

Qiagen manufactures its products with world-class features that suit modern needs. The following are some intriguing features of the Connect system. 

1. Remote Connectivity: 

Qiagen provides remote connectivity with its unique feature called QIAsphere. The Connect systems come incorporated with this feature that allows remote connectivity. Through this feature, the operators can focus on other tasks while the system performs its run. The system also sends push notifications for important instrument events. The users can also manage the reports and check the maintenance status using this feature. 

2. Barcode Scanner: 

The Qiacube connect machines kit also has a barcode scanner as an accessory. This handheld scanner makes it easy to track the samples. Also, these readers provide the tracking of the sample kit information throughout the process. 

3. Protocols suiting different samples: 

The Connect systems have many protocols pre-installed for different applications like purification processes of RNA, plasmid and genomic DNA, viral proteins and nucleic acids, etc. These protocols also apply for DNA and RNA cleanup. Operators can also request the company for customized protocols apart from the preprogrammed ones. 

4. UV Light Contamination: 

Qiacube systems have an inbuilt UV light that helps decontaminate the entire worktable of the operator. This prevents the crossover and cross-contamination between different samples being processed by the system. Built-in UV light function can completely remove the contamination of the workbench and prevent contamination of the sample. In addition, gDNA was almost undetectable on UV exposures (without wipe and cleaning procedures). 

5. Spin column technology

It is easy to use, and you can expect the same results as the manual by using the spin-column technology, which is the representative technology of nucleic acid purification/extraction. By using QIAGEN’s various manual kits, there is no change in results even after automation, and manual supplementation is possible in case of need.

6. Centrifuge purification method

QIAcube Connect has a built-in centrifuge, heat block, shaker, pipettor, and prepper necessary for manual experimentation so that the manual method can be reproduced automatically.

7. 150 kinds of protocols provided

The built-in protocol is programmed as it is in the manual kit’s handbook process. Therefore, you can expect results consistent with the results of using the manual kit, and there is no need to worry or verify changes in results due to automation.

 Qiacube Connect 利点
