Laboratory Instrument
Instrument for Automated DNA and RNA Extraction
QIAGEN EZ2 Connect
The EZ2 Connect is
a desktop instrument used to automate the complex process of DNA and RNA
isolation from various samples for scientific analysis. Thanks to the prefilled
cartridges, up to 24 samples can be processed in one run. The touchscreen user
interface guides users with the aid of illustrated instructions and
preinstalled protocols. An on-board heating system to regulate liquid
temperature, a camera-based load check and a high-powered UV sterilisation
system provide a high level of processing safety. At the end of a run, users
can be notified via a smartphone that the samples are ready for additional
biological analyses.
Statement by the Jury
The design of the EZ2 Connect presents a consistently maintained simplicity that puts intuitive operability and economic workflow in the foreground.
