Experience the revolutionary compact benchtop design of our newly developed chemagic 360 Nucleic Acid Extractor. Based on the well-established chemagen Technology, the system offers a flexible solution for different sample processing and throughput needs. Configurable with three kinds of chemagic Rod Heads (see table below) the system can process sample volumes from 10 μl – 10 ml.
Key features:
To support your automation needs, the system is equipped with the chemagic Software and the chemagic Dispenser 360. These allow LIMS-compatible bar code reading/sample tracking and automated buffer filing for all volume applications.
The intuitive chemagic Software is the ideal solution for laboratories that require high quality assurance while they use the chemagic 360 instrument for nucleic acid isolation. For ease of operation and advanced QA needs the chemagic Software generates log files, which can be easily integrated in LIMS systems.
Features at a glance:
The use of the chemagic 360 instrument simplifies and improves time consuming sample preparation steps in nucleic acid isolation significantly, by using the chemagic Dispenser 360 unit. The chemagic Dispenser 360 notably reduces hands-on time when preparing a chemagic 360 run. Independent of the amount of needed buffer, the additional unit prefills tubes/plates quickly and accurately. Variants of the chemagic Dispenser 360 unit are available to suit the corresponding chemagic Rod Head formats (12 and 24/96).

Due to it’s serious impact on world health, society and the economy, understanding the extent of the COVID-19 pandemic is an ongoing key challenge for public health officials, even in consideration of the vaccine roll out.
Wastewater monitoring, also known as wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE), continues to play a crucial part for early identification of SARS-CoV-2 infection rates and hot spots and the surveillance of COVID-19. The demand for highly sensitive, mass-scale, cost effective and non-invasive solutions for the surveillance of the infection continues to be great.
In this Application Brief, global genomics sequencing laboratory, Dante Labs, has demonstrated how the identification of the SARS-CoV-2 virus within wastewater samples is achievable through both manual and automated workflows. The automated workflow that Dante Labs utilized includes RNA isolation sample prep with the use of the chemagic™ Viral DNA/RNA kit special H96 with the chemagic™ 360 instrument for RNA extraction, the JANUS® G3 PCR Workstation for automated SARS-CoV-2 PCR assay setup and SARS-COV-2 RT-PCR kit from PerkinElmer.
PerkinElmer and 10x Genomics have created a complete automated workflow for long-read sequencing which maximizes high molecular weight gDNA extraction for a variety of sample types including saliva, DBS, blood, and plasma.
This flyer gives the overview of PerkinElmer NGS workflow solutions from extraction to analysis.
