Automated Sample Preparation for PCR-Based Assays

• Extract high-quality bacterial DNA and viral RNA
• Process a wide range of food and environmental samples
• Fast time-to-results
• Prepare hundreds of samples per shift per instrument

High-Throughput Food and Environmental Sample Preparation

PCR-based bacterial assays have become an important tool in food safety and environmental testing. The Applied Biosystems PrepSEQ Nucleic Acid Extraction Kit prepares high-quality bacterial DNA and viral RNA from food and environmental samples for PCR-based testing using magnetic bead-based extraction. In combination with the automated MagMAX Express-96 Deep Well Magnetic Particle Processor or the KingFisher Flex Purification System with KingFisher 96 Deep-well Head, this optimized solution enables laboratories to prepare a wide range of sample types at rates of up to hundreds of samples per eight-hour shift.

Streamlined Workflow

An easy-to-use, easy-to-learn protocol simplifies integration of the PrepSEQ Nucleic Acid Extraction Kit into the laboratory workflow. The same protocol can be used on a wide range of sample types, and the MagMAX Express-96 instrument or the KingFisher Flex Purification System with KingFisher 96 Deep-well Head automates many of the workflow steps to reduce hands-on time.

A Complete Solution

The PrepSEQ Nucleic Acid Extraction Kit is part of a fully integrated, start-to-finish solution for food and environmental testing. The kit has been performance-verified for food and environmental testing with MicroSEQ Microbial Detection Kits, the Applied Biosystems 7500 Fast Real-Time PCR System, and RapidFinder Express Software.
