Reduce hands-on time with library prep automation. Automating your library prep minimizes errors and is available for a range of throughput and capital expenditure needs. The liquid handling robots used for automation can be programmed for various lab needs, making them ideal for labs that require high flexibility.
Our automation partners have developed automation methods that span our library prep portfolio. They offer both high- and low-throughput walk-away automation methods. The Illumina-Qualified designation means we’ve performed analyses that show libraries prepared with these methods perform comparably to libraries prepared manually.

Illumina Qualified (Illumina analysis has shown that libraries prepared with these methods perform comparably to those prepared manually)
Documentation: user guide and / or app note available
*In order to accommodate for higher dead volume requirements associated with automated platforms and variation in overfill volumes by the original reagent manufacturer, more than one AmpliSeq for Illumina kit may be required when preparing the maximum number of libraries per kit.
The Fragment Analyzer offers automated fragmentation and size selection. It accurately assesses quality and quantity of prepared libraries to optimize cluster generation during sequencing, and it accommodates both low- and high-throughput labs.
DownloadThe streamlined, automated workflow generates highly uniform libraries and provides excellent data for species identification, metagenomic profiling, and de novo genome assembly.
