BIOSPRINT 96

The BioSprint 96 DNA Plant Kit is used with the BioSprint 96. The kit uses magnetic-particle technology for rapid DNA purification from plant material. The BioSprint 96 controls an array of magnetic rods that can attract or release magnetic particles and transfer them from well to well. The sequential transfer of magnetic particles allows a rapid purification procedure to be performed, from the initial binding of DNA to the particles, through to washing of the particles and elution of pure DNA. Since the instrument transfers magnetic particles instead of liquids, it uses minimal amounts of reagents, enabling cost-efficient sample preparation.
