Overview

QX200 AutoDG Droplet Digital PCR System enables and automates up to 2-color multiplexing for up to 96-samples per run providing clear discrimination of multiple targets. System includes Automated Droplet Generator, QX200 Droplet Reader, computer, and QX Manager Software, Standard Edition.

Description

Description

The QX200 AutoDG Droplet Digital PCR System simplifies the Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR) workflow, reducing hands-on time and eliminating user-to-user variability. The AutoDG Instrument brings scalability and flexibility to Bio-Rad’s ddPCR technology, the most precise and sensitive digital PCR solution for the absolute quantification of target DNA molecules.

  • Eliminates user-to-user variability — creates more consistent droplet counts across users and plates, enabling you to fully exploit the precision of your ddPCR System
  • Minimizes hands-on time — takes less than 5 minutes to load the instrument, and droplet generation requires no supervision

Features of the QX200 AutoDG Droplet Digital PCR system

AutoDG Instrument:

  • Guides setup and loading with large, color touch-screen interface and LED lighting
  • Compatible with both the QX100 and QX200 Droplet Digital PCR Systems
  • Generates droplets for 96 ddPCR reactions in under 45 minutes
  • One AutoDG Instrument can supply 4–5 droplet readers continuously
  • HEPA-filtered enclosure reduces contamination and allows the system to be placed in any lab environment
  • User-definable plate layout with increments of 8 wells provides run-to-run flexibility

Droplet Digital PCR Technology:

  • Flexible digital PCR chemistry — optimized for TaqMan Hydrolysis Probe and EvaGreen Assays
  • Droplet partitioning by the QX200 Droplet Digital PCR system reduces bias from amplification efficiency and PCR inhibitors
  • Convenient assay design — standard curves are not required
