taco™ Nucleic Acid Automatic Extraction System

taco™ Nucleic Acid Automatic Extraction System applies the magnetic particle transfer technology to purify nucleic acids from up to 24 samples within 50 minutes. High-quality nucleic acids extracted from a wide range of sample materials are ready for immediate use in downstream application. There is no unnecessary parameter input. You simply press a single button to start. Using taco™ will bring you a whole new experience of nucleic acid purification.

• 5 minutes quick installation for prompt use.

• Compact size for use in the biological safety cabinet.

• Up to 24 samples per run.

• One touch operation.

• Universal built-in program for ease of use.

• Pause function for emergent stop.

• Self-calibration before extraction starts.

• Built-in UV lamp to avoid cross contamination.


Performance

Fig 1. With taco™ Total DNA Extraction Kit, genomic DNA can be extracted from various sample types.


Fig 2. With taco™ Total DNA Extraction Kit, the result shows high consistence among samples from the same person's whole blood.


Fig 3. No Cross-contamination to neighbor well. PCR templates are extracted from 200 μl spiked plasmid (1x106, lane 1, 3, 5 and 7) and non-template control (lane 2, 4, 6 and 8).
