Small and self-contained QuickGene-810 takes up minimal space on the lab bench. Intelligent QuickGene-810 handles samples automatically and extracts DNA or RNA . FUJIFILM's patented porous membrane makes it possible to extract DNA from eight sets of whole blood samples simultaneously in only six minutes. FUJIFILM provides several kits for extracting DNA from whole blood and tissue samples and RNA from cultured cells, tissue samples and blood cells. The system uses a porous, highly adsorptive membrane developed through application of FUJIFILM's advanced polymer membrane production technology. It is only 80μm thick, making it incomparably thinner than conventional glass fibers. QuickGene-810's ultra thin membrane alleviates the risk of contamination from residue in the membrane. Problematic RNA extraction can also be fully automated with QuickGene-810. RNA is much more unstable than DNA, and ribonuclease in the atmosphere or from the operator during the extraction process has sometimes resulted in its degradation. But there's no risk at all of contamination when you use QuickGene-810 because the extraction process occurs automatically in a sealed, enclosed space. Three pressurizing stages -binding, washing and elution-occur automatically in the unit.Because of the outstanding adsorptive and desorptive properties of the membrane, high-purity nucleic acid can be obtained easily at low pressure without any complex processes such as centrifugation. There are almost no impurities in extracted genomic DNA and total RNA. The absence of impurities such as proteins and chaotropic salts means that the isolated products can be used directly in PCR and RT-PCR. High yields of genomic DNA can be extracted from whole blood and total RNA from cultured cells without any need to use hazardous organic solvents. Yield of genomic DNA extracted from 200μL of whole blood (average of ten specimens) There's no need to set complex isolation conditions. Automation ensures that extraction doesn't fail because of contamination. BACK
