Automated DNA size selection

pippin_family

The Pippin Prep and Blue Pippin are new electrophoresis platforms for preparation of size-fractionated DNA samples using pre-cast agarose gel cassettes which enable user-defined size fractions from 50bp to 50kb to be collected automatically. Product DNA is eluted into liquid buffer - no gel extraction required. The systems are especially useful for preparation of next-gen sequencing libraries, yielding higher quality DNA at a fraction of the time and labor of manual protocols.

Improved library construction for Next-Generation Sequencing

Significant amounts of time and labor are saved compared with manual prep gels
Extraction of narrow size ranges streamline sequencing and data analysis
Accurate size ranges are selected with software, and reproducibly extracted from samples
High sample recovery reduce amplification cycles and provide more unique molecules
Minimal low molecular weight contamination improves adapter clean-up

Pippin Prep : automated DNA size selection and collection

• Minutes of labor saves time compared to manual gel purification
• Reproducible extractions provide more consistent results
• Provides narrow fragment size distributions
• Minimal low molecular weight contamination reduce wasted reads
