ABI Hitachi 3730XL DNA Analyzer
This instrument enables high throughput and fast turn-around time. Researchers report reads of up to 1100 bases before an ambiguous base is encountered.
This 96 capillary electrophoresis unit machine will run up to 1200 samples in 24 hours and detects BigDye fluorescent terminator chemistry. Automated polymer filling and sample loading provide efficient and accurate runs.
Turnaround times
Template and primer samples brought in by 9am can usually be set up for that day's run. With the new LIMS software, results usually appear by 5pm (except for 96-well plates, where data appear that evening or the next day).
