The Hamilton Genomic STARlet Fully Automates Workflows to Quickly Isolate High-Quality Nucleic Acids

Hamilton, together with MACHEREY-NAGEL, optimized the Genomic STARlet assay ready workstation to quickly isolate high-quality nucleic acids for use in downstream applications using NucleoSpin and NucleoFast assay kits. Multiple vacuum-based protocols and various sample types, including bacterial and eukaryotic cells, tissue, blood/plasma, plants, and more may be automatically processed on a single, integrated system with a small footprint to conserve precious laboratory space. Depending on the kit, up to 96 samples may be processed in 60-144 minutes, allowing several runs to be performed each day.

Configurations:

• 4 or 8 channels
• manual load and autoload options

Features and Benefits

• Confidence in Reliable, Accurate Results
• In addition to proven MACHEREY-NAGEL nucleic acid extraction technology, the Genomic STARlet ensures sample integrity and confidence in results through:
• Air displacement pipetting using Hamilton tips with CO-RE (Compressed O-Ring Expansion) technology for superior measurement accuracy, precision, and reproducibility without aerosol generation during tip pick-up and ejection
• Real-time clot detection
• Anti-Droplet Control (ADC) to reduce contamination risk
• Barcode tracking
• Optional use of filter tips

One System, Multiple Solutions

• Versatility extends through multiple Genomic STARlet pre-installed application packages and configurations, including those for:
• Classic Life Science: NucleoSpin 8/96 Plasmid, NucleoSpin 8/96 PCR Clean-up, NucleoFast 96 PCR
• Genomic: NucleoSpin 8/96 Blood, NucleoSpin 8/96 Tissue, NucleoSpin 8/96 Plant II
• Gene Expression Profiling: NucleoSpin 8/96 Virus, NucleoSpin 8/96 RNA

Dimensions    

• Length:31.1 in (788 mm)
