GENE PREP
The GENE PREP
is the latest DNA extraction system from AutoGen providing many
of the same features of our earlier models including:
● Total Automation
● Multiple Sample
Capability
● Low Cost per
Sample
● High Yield
● High Quality DNA
THE GENE PREP is a
new and improved DNA isolation system for plant, animal tissue
and plasmid samples.
Key New Features Include:
● Capable of
automating entire extraction process including
tissue digestion.
● Shorter
processing time (48 samples in only 2 hours).
● Expandable
modular system grows with your lab.
