Targeted Application Solutions for Genomic Research Reduce Sample Processing Time

By LabMedica International staff writers
Posted on 16 Aug 2010

Optimized automation systems have been developed that allow the user to increase the number of reactions that are performed in parallel, drastically reducing the amount of sample processing time and increasing the number of samples each researcher can process while reducing the amount of sample-to-sample variability.

Agilent Automation Solutions (Santa Clara, CA, USA) has successfully automated a diverse array of laboratory processes, and offers a range of targeted application solutions for genomics laboratories. This information is summarized in the automation section of a new website dedicated to genomic research (please see related links below).

Agilent's automation product family ranging from standalone instruments to fully-integrated systems enables customers to automate simple (but time-consuming) tasks such as labeling, centrifugation, and sealing to entire complex processes such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) prep and clean up, microarray sample preparation, and next-generation sequencing library creation.

From stand-alone units to fully integrated systems, Agilent Automation Solutions brings together key sample preparation and creative walk-away automation approaches with personalized customer service to provide complete solutions for the laboratory.
