Instrument provides automated electrophoresis for labs with
limited budgets
Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) announced today the shipping
of a new instrument that offers laboratories a more affordable,
low-throughput option for analyzing the quality of RNA and DNA
samples.
“The Agilent 4150 TapeStation system makes quality control in
next-generation sequencing easier, faster, and more economical than
ever,” said Knut Wintergerst, general manager of Agilent’s
Biomolecular Systems and Solutions product line.
He noted that the new system provides automated electrophoresis
and extends the company’s ScreenTape technology to smaller biobanks
that need to provide information about sample integrity.
“Laboratories that have limited budgets will now be able to take
advantage of all the features and benefits of our ScreenTape
technology: ease of use, constant cost per sample, fast and
accurate results, and minimal hands-on time,” Wintergerst
explained.
The 4150 TapeStation system is compatible with Agilent’s
complete portfolio of all DNA and RNA assays which also run on the
higher throughput 4200 TapeStation instrument.
