The QIAGEN QIAcube Connect performs fully automated processing of up to 12 samples of selected QIAGEN kits. The QIAcube Connect controls integrated components, including a centrifuge, heated shaker, pipetting system, UV LED and robotic gripper. The QIAcube Connect is preinstalled with various protocols for processing QIAGEN spin columns for purification of RNA, genomic DNA, plasmid DNA, viral nucleic acids or proteins, plus DNA and RNA cleanup. The user selects a protocol using the touchscreen and loads labware, samples, and reagents onto the QIAcube Connect worktable. The user then closes the instrument hood and starts the protocol, which provides all necessary commands for sample lysis and purification using QIAGEN spin columns. A fully automated load check helps to ensure correct loading of the worktable.
