sbeadex Nucleic Acid Extraction Kits

LGC Diagnostics and Genomics - Rapid Genomics Genotyping Solutions

Our proprietary sbeadex magnetic microparticles are designed to deliver high yields of high quality DNA, and have long enabled high throughput automated processing.   sbeadex™ magnetic microparticles offer two key features which enable the extraction and purification of high quality DNA preparations: A novel two step binding mechanism via a patented adapter enables binding of nucleic acids more specifically. Final washes with pure water to deliver nucleic acids in high yield, purity and quality.   Features: Development of customised protocols to your requirements Tailor-made extractions like modified lysis or eluation steps according to user requirements Extraction speed optimisation - quicker results Highly flexible batch sizes   Technical advantages: Final washes with pure water to deliver nucleic acids in high yield, purity and quality No potential PCR inhibitors in wash buffers - e.g. organic solvents, salts, polyethyleneglycol Applicable for most popular robotic platforms (f.e. Hamilton, TECAN or KingFisher)   Available sbeadex kits: sbeadex plant kit sbeadex blood kit sbeadex plasmid kit sbeadex forensic kit sbeadex tissue kit sbeadex livestock kit sbeadex pathogen kit   The sbeadex technologies are suitable for high throughput automation and we have substantial experience developing sbeadex kits and protocols for use with a wide range of automation systems.

Cell / Tissue CultureCell culture or tissue culture is used to study the biology of cells or tissues and to isolate cellular products in an environment which can be manipulated and well defined. Accurately control your culture environment with bioreactors or culture incubators, bind your cells to a surface or together with an extracellular matrix. Distinguish cell types with differential media or proliferate cells with certain characteristics using selective media. Enrich your media with supplements such as growth factors, sera and vitamins. Find the best cell and tissue culture products, kits and equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Genome AnalysisGenomics, the study of genomes, includes functional genomics, evolutionary genomics and comparative genomics. There are many genomic technologies such as DNA sequencing of whole genomes, computational biology and bioinformatics. DNA and nucleic acids must be isolated and concentrated from cells for analysis with kits, automated analyzers and software. Other useful technologies for studying genomics include PCR, microarrays and electrophoresis.PCR and Thermal CyclingPolymerase chain reaction (PCR) kits and thermal cyclers are used for the in vitro amplification of DNA permitting subsequent analysis and experimental procedures. Explore a range of high-quality polymerase, primers and nucleotides or simplify your workflow with a PCR mastermix. Find reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and cDNA synthesis kits for RNA products and libraries. Quantitatively measure the amplification of DNA with real-time PCR (qPCR) and droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) kits and systems, and discover automated PCR setup solutions to increase throughput. Alternative DNA amplification methods also include recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) kits. Find the best PCR kits and thermal cyclers and purification equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.DNA / RNA Extraction and PurificationPurified DNA and RNA are required for numerous downstream molecular biology applications. Consequently, the importance of high-quality DNA/RNA extraction and purification equipment cannot be underestimated. Many purification kits are available and are typically optimized for nucleic acid type and source, including plasmid DNA, genomic DNA, mRNA, RNA and viral nucleic acid purification kits. Automated extraction and purification of nucleic acids can be implemented with magnetic bead separator instruments or high-throughput purification workstations.
