IsoPure Mini
The IsoPure Mini is an automated platform for magnetic bead-based DNA/RNA extraction and purification with a minimal benchtop footprint. Capable of processing up to 16 samples at one time, the stand-alone instrument is easy to set up, program, and operate. Mixing, magnetic bead transfer, washing, and elution steps are performed automatically, saving valuable hands-on time. The purification process can be completed within 20–60 min depending on the complexity of the program.
