Promega Releases Next Generation Maxwell® 16 System for Automated Purification

Promega Corporation announces availability of the second generation of its fully integrated Personal Automation™ System with a new look and new capabilities.

The latest model handles a new low elution volume (LEV) format for smaller sample sizes in addition to the standard elution volume (SEV) capability. With the Maxwell 16 System, up to 16 DNA, RNA or recombinant protein samples can be purified simultaneously in less than 40 minutes with higher yield than similar methods.

The Maxwell 16 System meets regulatory requirements for clinical diagnostic DNA purification in the United States and supports DNA-based tests performed by both clinical and research labs.

A Maxwell 16 System can be ready for work in 15 minutes from delivery, and protocols take the touch of a button to initiate. The Maxwell unit sits on the bench-top taking up only as much space as an open lap-top computer.
