The process of purifying nucleic acid from genomic, viral, or cellular origins is simplified with high-throughput, automated DNA and RNA purification systems. Sample preparation workstations minimize or eradicate contamination in samples destined for refined downstream applications. Automated systems reduce inconsistencies in sample yield, preparing uniform quantities for PCR applications and sequencing analyses. Important considerations for these systems are the number of samples processed daily and the available laboratory space. In contrast to low throughput manual kits, automated DNA and RNA purification systems can process 12 to 96 samples in less than 30 minutes or 1 hour, respectively, and allow various handling volumes ranging from 1uL to 1000uL. Touchscreen, user-friendly interfaces provide nucleic acid purification simplicity, and robotic arms decrease contamination. These instruments are an investment, so features such as size, capacity, usage, price, and versatility should be taken into consideration.
