How magnetic-bead nucleic acid extraction works on MultiEX
Magnetic-bead nucleic acid extraction uses paramagnetic particles to bind DNA and RNA during lysis and washing, then elute purified nucleic acids into a final volume. MultiEX instruments automate pipetting, mixing, heating, and magnetic separation steps.
- Programmable lysis, binding, wash, and elution temperatures (37°C to 125°C)
- Adjustable mixing levels and stirring up to 10 Hz (vendor-stated)
- Magnetic rod and sleeve consumables per manufacturer specifications
- Open-system design supports multiple kit suppliers with IFU confirmation
