Spin-column automation

Robotic centrifugal or vacuum systems that automate the wash-and-elute cycle of a silica-membrane spin column, replicating a manual extraction kit workflow without hands-on pipetting.

Where it's used

Automated nucleic acid extraction
Benchtop instruments that automate DNA/RNA purification from biological samples — spin-column robots, magnetic-bead purifiers and liquid-biopsy sample-prep platforms — replacing manual extraction kits with standardized, walk-away processing for molecular diagnostics, sequencing library prep and biopharma QC.
