The DNA IQ™ Reference Sample Kit for Maxwell® 16 is designed specifically for optimal DNA extraction from buccal swabs, FTA® blood card punches, liquid blood or other high-concentration DNA reference samples. These samples are typically encountered in forensic, convicted-offender database and paternity testing. The kit contains the same trusted reagents used in the DNA IQ™ System in a convenient prepackaged format and is optimized to yield a final DNA concentration that minimizes the need for concentration or dilution prior to amplification. Liquefied samples are placed directly into the cartridges...

The DNA IQ™ Reference Sample Kit for Maxwell® 16 is designed specifically for optimal DNA extraction from buccal swabs, FTA® blood card punches, liquid blood or other high-concentration DNA reference samples. These samples are typically encountered in forensic, convicted-offender database and paternity testing. The kit contains the same trusted reagents used in the DNA IQ™ System in a convenient prepackaged format and is optimized to yield a final DNA concentration that minimizes the need for concentration or dilution prior to amplification. Liquefied samples are placed directly into the cartridges, and genomic DNA ready for amplification is obtained in approximately 20 minutes.
The Maxwell® 16 Instrument allows efficient, automated DNA purification from a wide range of sample types. The instrument is preprogrammed with purification protocols that, when combined with prefilled reagent cartridges, maximize simplicity and convenience. The instrument processes up to 16 samples per instrument run. The purified DNA is of high quality and at high yield and concentration, suitable for direct use in a variety of downstream applications. The Maxwell® 16 Instrument, a magnetic-particle-handling device, purifies DNA using paramagnetic particles, allowing optimal capture, washing and elution of the target material.
The Maxwell® 16 Instrument includes a one-year basic warranty. Several products are offered to extend the warranty. If during the extended warranty period the instrument needs repair under normal use, Promega will be responsible for the repair. Premium warranties offer similar terms and the use of a temporary replacement instrument during the instrument repair period. Please contact Promega for complete warranty terms and limits.
