Product Details

The EGENE-UP® EASYPREP is ideal for semi-automated extraction of foodborne virus nucleic acids when paired with GENE-UP® virus detection and quantification kits. 

 

It is also a game-changer for specific protocol for Salmonella detection in cocoa and chocolate matrices, delivering results in less than 12 hours.

FEATURES

 

  • Walk-Away Operation: After setup, the platform runs autonomously, allowing users to focus on other tasks while the instrument handles nucleic acid extraction and purification.
  • Scalable and Flexible: Suitable for a variety of sample types and lab sizes, providing a flexible solution to meet diverse testing needs.
  • Quick Turnaround: Ideal for applications requiring fast pathogen detection, such as Salmonella detection in cocoa/chocolate matrices (results in under 12 hours).

 

WHY CHOOSE EGENE-UP® EASYPREP & NUCLISENS® - BENEFITS:

 

  • Running time: Reduction of Enrichment time and time-to-result by up to 50% compared to classical methods.
  • Ease of use: User-friendly interface simplifies operation, reducing the need for extensive training.
  • Flexibility: Adaptable to various sample types and protocols, making it suitable for different lab environments and testing needs.
  • Cost: Achieve cost efficiency by reducing handling time by 70% compared to the same manual protocol.
  • Automation: Semi-automated operation helps reduce human error risk and contributes to increase throughput, allowing labs to focus on other tasks.
  • AFNOR Certification for Cocoa & Chocolate Raw Ingredients: Trusted technology that follows international standards for accuracy and safety.

By automating the complex and time-consuming process of nucleic acid extraction, EGENE-UP® EASYPREP helps ensure that laboratories achieve faster, more reliable results—essential for critical applications in food safety, diagnostics, and pathogen detection.
