IsoPure 96 Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction
Chapter 1 Introduction
The IsoPure 96 nucleic acid purification instrument is a newly launched automatic extraction and purification system for DNA/RNA, proteins and cells. It can absorb, transfer and release magnetic beads by magnetic rod and magnetic rod sleeve to separate magnetic beads and samples. The operation is automatic, fast and simple. Users can extract 1~24, 1~48 or 1~96 samples simultaneously with special kits. Auto pure series can extract samples of animal/plant tissue, blood and body fluids, etc with different kinds of magnetic bead nucleic acid extraction reagents. It is mainly used for the extraction and purification of nucleic acid from human body samples.
1. Application This instrument is suitable for the extraction and purification of nucleic
acids in animal and plant tissues, blood and body fluids and other samples(mainly used in human body samples).
2. Contraindication No contraindication.
3. Service Life
Service life of the instrument is five years. For production date, please see the label on back of the instrument.
