Instrument for automated mid- to high-throughput nucleic acid purification in 96-well format
QIAcube HT is a compact, benchtop instrument with a very small footprint. It fits easily onto most lab benches and can be readily moved into biosafety level laboratories. QIAcube HT comes with a laptop computer for added flexibility.
Advanced instrument safety features, including a translucent hood, help to protect precious samples from environmental contamination. The HEPA filter maintains positive clean air pressure on the worktable underneath the hood and protects precious samples from potential airborne contamination. The UV light provides efficient worktable decontamination and helps to prevent cross-contamination. QIAcube HT ejects used tips through the tip disposal chute into a disposable plastic box located at the side of the instrument. This external tip ejection prevents waste accumulation in the clean workspace. The tip disposal box holder keeps the box positioned correctly under the tip chute. The disposal box also comes with a secure-fitting lid to make waste disposal simple and safe.
QIAcube HT features and benefits:
Reliable nucleic acid extraction from virtually any sample type
Cost and time savings with dedicated purification kits
Intuitive software for easy data management and documentation
Designed to increase safety and minimize cross-contamination
Convenient, flexible, and easy-to-use instrument with small footprint
QIAcube HT enables automated mid- to high-throughput nucleic acid purification in 96-well format using silica membrane technology. A variety of QIAcube HT Purification Kits lets users quickly and easily purify DNA, RNA and miRNA from almost any type of sample – including cells, tissues and stool samples, as well as from bacteria and viruses in animal samples. Automated protocols and dedicated accessories and consumables increase reliability and convenience and save valuable time. The system provides the same high-quality results as other trusted QIAGEN purification technologies.
Performance
QIAcube HT provides fast and reliable automated high-throughput nucleic acid purification for use in a variety of sensitive downstream applications. Researchers can easily increase their sample purification throughput and expect the same high-quality results as from other trusted QIAGEN nucleic acid purification solutions.>
Principle
Procedure
All materials needed for sample purification are placed onto the instrument worktable prior to the run. A 96-well sample block contains the starting sample material that will be lysed and transferred to the filter plate during the run. Easy-to-fill disposable troughs contain all necessary buffers and reagents for sample binding, washing, and elution. Pipet tips are positioned on the right side of the worktable.
Liquid-handling tasks are performed by the 8-channel pipetting head, which provides fast transfer of liquids during the run. The software tracks tip use and internally updates tip availability as the run proceeds. QIAcube HT optimizes the use of plasticware with a smart and economical tip reuse strategy. After washing, the pipetting head moves the 96-well filter plate to the elution compartment, where purified nucleic acids are eluted into the elution microtubes. The included 8-well strip caps securely close the elution microtubes for sample storage.
