Maxwell® RSC Instrument
Automated DNA or RNA Extraction with Integrated Quantification
• High-quality nucleic acid purification with minimal steps and less hands-on time
• Integrated Quantus™ Fluorometer for sample quantification
• Intuitive software and touch screen interface
Extract high-quality nucleic acids with less hands-on time
The Maxwell® RSC Instrument is a compact, automated nucleic acid purification platform that processes up to 16 samples simultaneously. Using prefilled cartridges and preprogrammed methods, the Maxwell® RSC offers consistent, reliable DNA or RNA extraction in 25–60 minutes, depending upon sample type. The intuitive graphical interface makes the instrument easy to use, and the integrated Quantus™ Fluorometer lets you collect purification and quantification data in one report.
No clogging worries with a paramagnetic particle mover
The Maxwell® RSC DNA or RNA extraction methods start with cartridges prefilled with purification reagents and paramagnetic particles, ready for your samples. After sample addition, the Maxwell® RSC moves the paramagnetic particles and associated nucleic acids through multiple steps ultimately yielding highly pure RNA or DNA in 30–100µl.
Because the Maxwell® RSC is a magnetic particle mover, not a liquid handler, it offers advantages over other automated systems. There is minimal risk of cross-contamination because no liquid handling or splashing happens during sample processing. With no clogs and fewer breakdowns, there are fewer disruptions to your workflow.
