This instrument provides a complete solution for DNA/RNA quality control of limiting amounts of sample on the chips. The micro-capillary electrophoresis-based technology provides high quality digital reporting of size range and quantity on a single platform. Bioanalyzer system has the resolution and power to quantify a few picograms with as little as a couple microliters of samples. Several kits are available at CF.

The spectrophotometer is used to measure microvolumes (0.5 – 2 µL) of nucleic acid and protein samples. No dilutions required, even for highly concentrated samples. Patented sample retention system automatically optimizes pathlength to accommodate low and high concentrations . Calculates sample purity ratios (260/280 nm and 260/230 nm). Recommended for Sanger Sequencing.

This high-throughput massive parallel sequencer allows to access more focused applications such as targeted gene sequencing, RNA-Seq, metagenomics, small genome sequencing, amplicon sequencing and others. New MiSeq reagents enable up to 15 Gb of output with 25 M sequencing reads and 2 x 300 bp read lengths.

This sequencer is fluorescence based DNA analysis instrument using capillary electrophoresis technology with 24 capillaries. Analyzer is fully automated, from sample loading to primary data analysis, for DNA sequencing and fragment analysis.

The fluorometer quantitates DNA, RNA, and protein with high accuracy, sensitivity and simplicity. Fluorescence-based nucleic acid quantification methods are more sensitive than absorbance-based methods, allowing you to quantitate low-level DNA samples accurately. Recommended for Next-Gen Sequencing.  Several kits are available at CF.

This focused ultrasonicator is designed for Next-Gen Sequencing applications requiring fragment sizes between 150bp and 5kb. It is used to mechanically shear nucleic acids into smaller fragments by focused ultrasonic waves and is a recommended instrument to mechanically shear nucleic acids in Illumina protocols. MicroTUBE (50ul) and miniTUBE (130 ul) are available at CF.

This confocal laser scanner is used to analyze standard two-color (Cy3 and Cy5) microarrays. GenePix software allows for adjustable scan area and resolution, as well as automated spot finding. The Genepix 4000B scans at resolutions between 5 and 100 microns.
