QIAGEN | QIAgility Automated PCR


QIAGEN | QIAgility | Lab Automation

The QIAgility is a small benchtop system that enables rapid, high-precision PCR setup. The versatility of the QIAgility means that almost all tube and plate formats are supported as well as Rotor-Discs for the Rotor-Gene Q. The QIAgility is operated via a computer with easy-to-use software. Simply select a program, set up the worktable, and walk away during PCR setup. For PCR success at first attempt, use verified Q Protocols for PCR setup in combination with QIAGEN PCR kits and enzymes for end-point and real-time PCR.

Key Features:
• Rapid, high-precision automated PCR setup
• Automated PCR setup in all formats
• Elimination of manual pipetting steps

In addition to PCR setup, the flexibility of the QIAgility allows the user to program an unrivaled range of high-precision pipetting applications (see figure "Speed and versatility"), which includes:

• Normalization of DNA and RNA concentration
• Transfer of liquid samples from one tube format to another
• Serial dilutions with variable dilution ratios
• Restriction digest setup
• Sample pooling
• Selective pipetting from archived sample banks

Applications:
The QIAgility is highly suited for laboratories performing PCR and RT-PCR in applications such as:
• Gene expression analysis
• Virus detection
• Genotyping
• Cloning
• Pathogen detection
