Description
The Flex robot is the base of a modular system that includes pipettes, a labware gripper, on-deck modules, and labware — all of which you can swap out yourself. Flex is designed with a touchscreen so you can work with it directly at the lab bench, or you can control it from across your lab with the Opentrons App or our open-source APIs. With the Flex Nucleic Acid Extraction Workstation, you can automate your NAE workflow at the scale you need to increase efficiency, reduce errors, and save hands-on time. Flex enables you to automate your nucleic acid isolation and purification workflows using any leading magnetic bead-based system on the market. The Flex Nucleic Acid Extraction Workstation can support the following workflow steps:
- Sample lysis via heat and/or agitation
- Magnetic bead mixing and separation
