The EZ1 Advanced XL performs automated nucleic acid purification for a wide range of sample types relevant for molecular diagnostics, human identity testing, forensics, biomedical research, and gene expression analysis.
High-quality genomic DNA and RNA from a range of sample materials
Viral RNA/DNA and bacterial DNA from biomedical samples
Throughput of up to 14 samples per run
Effortless data management with full traceability
UV lamp to help minimize contamination risk.
Principle
Automated sample preparation enables efficient, standardized purification of nucleic acids. Manual sample handling is minimized, ensuring safety to the user and reliable processing of samples.
The EZ1 Advanced XL instrument uses proven EZ1 Kits for purification of DNA, RNA, and viral nucleic acids from a wide range of starting materials. Purified nucleic acids are ready for immediate use in downstream applications. The combination of an easy-to-use instrument, with error-free protocol selection and worktable setup, and prefilled, sealed reagent cartridges makes nucleic acid purification easy.
Flexibility and ease of use
The self-contained EZ1 Advanced XL instrument ensures optimal ease of use and walkaway automation. A wide range of protocols is available for purification of DNA, RNA, or viral nucleic acids. Up to 14 samples can be processed per run in as little as 20 minutes. The instrument is operated via a keypad, and instrument information is displayed on the VFD (vacuum fluorescent display).
All processing steps are performed by the instruments from piercing reagent cartridges to elution of pure nucleic acids. A separate computer is not required for operation, and EZ1 Kits include all reagents and accessories required to process your samples. EZ1 Kits provide prefilled, foil-sealed reagent cartridges that remain sealed until the instrument door is closed, and the protocol run started, reducing the risk of contamination during setup.
If desired, up to 4 EZ1 Advanced XL instruments can be connected to an external computer, expanding throughput up to 56 samples per run. This enables you to easily adapt your laboratory setup to changing sample preparation requirements.
