Short Description: The Agilent TapeStation system is an automated electrophoresis solution for the sample quality control of DNA and RNA samples. The system integrates an instrument, data processing software, reagents, and ScreenTape devices specific for DNA and RNA.

Oxford Nanopore GRIDIonProduser:  Agilent

Equipment Information:

Main characteristics:

  • Nucleic acid analysis with minimal manual intervention
  • Full compatibility with all available RNA and DNA ScreenTape assays
  • Easy switching between DNA and RNA ScreenTape assays
  • Full sample scalability from 1 to 96 samples
  • Input fragment length up to 60Kb - to 2 minutes per sample or less than 90 minutes for 96 samples
  • Reduced sample consumption with as little as 1 to 2 µL of DNA and RNA samples
  • No risk of cross contamination with individual ScreenTape lanes
  • Integrity standards for RNA (RNA integrity number equivalent, RINe), genomic DNA (DNA integrity number, DIN), and cell-free DNA (%cfDNA)

Applications:

  • Nucelic acid quantificaiton
  • Nucelic acid qualfication
  • Next-generation sequencing library QC
