Flexible Tool for DNA Purification

The Maxwell™ 16 Purification System combines compact instrumentation,
prefilled Reagent Cartridges and optimized automated methods to maximize
performance and flexibility while minimizing hands-on time required for
DNA purification. The instrument is designed to process up to 16 samples
in a single run of about 30 minutes. The purified DNA is ready for
downstream analysis without sample preprocessing, centrifugation,
precipitation or rehydration of a DNA pellet. In this article, we
discuss the development of the Maxwell™ 16 System and demonstrate its
use for purification of genomic DNA.
