High-Throughput Analysis of DNA Samples using the D1K ScreenTape Assay and the Agilent 2200 TapeStation System
Recent advances in genomics demands to look at a wealth of genetic information in a short period of time. DNA analysis using slab gel electrophoresis and capillary electrophoresis are widely being used as a QC step in next generation sequencing and microarray studies. However, often these techniques lack the speed and involve more manual steps to perform the assay. The Agilent 2200 TapeStation system meets this demand by providing a simple to use automated electrophoresis platform with variable throughput capabilities from one or two samples up to a 96-well plate. The Agilent 2200 TapeStation system along with the D1K ScreenTape assay can analyze a full 96-well plate in less than 100 minutes with minimal manual intervention.
