Automate and accelerate your library prep

If your lab processes hundreds or thousands of samples for NGS library preparation, time-consuming manual handling can become a rate-limiting factor in your work. With this many samples, irreproducibility, manual handling errors and batch-to-batch inconsistency become magnified, which can translate into higher costs and longer turnaround times, as well as a greater number of experimental re-runs. Combine the flexibility of our QIAseq technology with the convenience of automation to turbo charge your library prep and save hours of hands-on time for larger runs.

A case study in streamlined NGS library preparation

The QIAseq FX DNA Library Kit optimizes NGS library prep by integrating enzymatic fragmentation of high molecular weight genomic DNA with fragment end-polishing. In this application note, discover how library prep can be further streamlined through automation on the Hamilton NGS STAR platform.

Focus on insights, not library prep

Automating your library prep minimizes sample-to-sample and human variability, as samples can be processed without manual intervention. This frees up your time to focus on what matters – achieving meaningful insights from your NGS data. Read the blog to learn more about optimizing your library prep workflow.
