Preparation Workstation

The VERSA™ GENE workstation is an automated liquid handling workstation designed to perform nucleic acid purification and PCR setup for end point or real time PCR with high precision, throughput and accuracy. This system is capable of complete work-up of RNA or DNA samples from extraction through to preparation of the PCR plate for amplification, allowing researchers to move past their nucleic acid extraction bottleneck. This customized liquid handling workstation offers advanced robotic automation features in combination with high precision liquid handling capabilities.                 

The unique multi-channel liquid handling head consists of a switchable 8 channel (with a single switchable single channel pipetting barrel), combined with a 5-channel ReagentDrop module. The ReagentDrop module provides rapid bulk dispensing of reagents, while the SyringePipettor guarantees accurate and precise pipetting of reagents, mastermix preparation, dilution series creation and sample addition. With a wide range of built in modules, the VERSA™ GENE workstation offers an extensive capacity for DNA extraction and RNA extraction reactions making this system ideal for many protocols, including PCR set up, sequencing setup or similar applications.
