A platform to meet every need

In-house microbial identification enables you to quickly identify contaminants and develop a risk mitigation plan. The series of SeqStudio genetic analyzers offers several options to help meet your throughput requirements. The SeqStudio QST Genetic Analyzer offers a low-throughput platform featuring fast turnaround, ease of use, and a convenient all-in-one workflow based on a cartridge system. The SeqStudio Flex PA platform is a system well-suited for medium and high throughput requirements. It is available in both 8- and 24-capillary configurations and offers easy-to-use, high sample number loading flexibility.
