PippinHT: High-Throughput DNA Size Selection Solution for Next-Generation Sequencing
The PippinHT is a cutting-edge instrument designed to meet the needs of next-generation sequencing laboratories. Thanks to its DNA size selection technology, it can process up to 24 samples in a single run, providing an automated and efficient solution for high-throughput laboratories. This system is particularly suitable for large-scale sequencing facilities, research laboratories, and core facilities, where the demand for sequencing data is high.
The PippinHT uses highly respected DNA size selection technology, ensuring high sample-to-sample reproducibility. This precision improves sample quality, which is crucial for downstream analyses. The system is also designed for ease of use, with a monitor, keyboard, and mouse included, as well as a built-in CPU, eliminating the need for an external PC.
The main downstream technologies for which the PippinHT is particularly effective include whole genome sequencing and miRNA library isolation. These applications require precise DNA size selection, which the PippinHT offers reliably and reproducibly.
In terms of technical specifications, the PippinHT operates with a constant or pulsed 75V electrophoresis voltage and uses optical detection at 470 nm for excitation and 525 nm for emission. It weighs 20 lbs (9 kg) and measures 18 inches high, 13 inches wide, and 17 inches deep with the lid open (46 cm high, 33 cm wide, and 43 cm deep). Gel cassette kits, which include 10 disposable pre-cut gel cassettes and all necessary standards and reagents, are also available for optimal use.
The PippinHT is an essential tool for laboratories looking to improve the efficiency and quality of their sequencing processes. With its ability to process large numbers of samples reproducibly and accurately, it represents a significant advancement in DNA size selection for next-generation sequencing.
