Maxwell® 16 Research System

Product catalog summary
Overview
The Maxwell® 16 System introduces Personal Automation™ to research labs, optimizing workflows by automating nucleic acid and protein purification. This system allows researchers to focus on scientific tasks rather than routine procedures, offering walk-away purification that saves time and labor. It can process up to 16 samples in 30-45 minutes, making extraction fast and simple.

Performance
The system ensures consistent and pure results with reproducible yields. It can purify DNA, RNA, or protein from a wide range of sample types, including blood and mouse tails. The design prevents common issues like clogged tips and partial reagent transfers, and there is no detectable cross-contamination between samples.

Ease of Use
The Maxwell® 16 System includes pre-filled reagent cartridges, specialized disposable plastics, and straightforward instructions, reducing hands-on steps and turnaround time. Its compact design fits into virtually any lab, increasing throughput and enabling faster testing.

Instrument Features
- Fast Extraction: Purifies samples in 30-45 minutes.
- Sample Size: Supports large or small samples with Standard Elution Volume (SEV) or Low Elution Volume (LEV).
- Particle Processor: Ensures consistent yield and purity without human error.
- Trusted Results: Proven with various sample types and downstream applications.
- Purification Kits: Offers a growing list of kits for different purification needs.
