GENOMICS THAT SCALES: ANYTIME, ANYWHERE
Biomark X9 System for High-Throughput Genomics
The Biomark™ X9 System is the only automated, walk-away PCR, qPCR and NGS library prep system on the market, eliminating the need for tedious, hands-on workflows and extra personnel. This versatile microfluidics-based benchtop platform generates data up to two times faster than other technologies – driving speed to insight for critical, time-sensitive data, delivering thousands of nanoliter-scale reactions in a single run and ensuring cost-effective, comprehensive and scalable sample profiling.
Just how much can you do with the new Biomark X9 System?
From 100s of NGS libraries to 1,000s of PCR reactions, here’s the Biomark X9 System by the numbers.
Applications
Introducing the Biomark X9 System for High-Throughput Genomics
Simplify workflows for real-time PCR and NGS library prep for superior efficiency.
The versatile and compact Biomark X9 System helps you do more with less resources.
Learn how microfluidics-based workflow automation is transforming genomic analyses (with Michael Egholm, CEO, Standard BioTools).
TECHNOLOGY
Achieve gold-standard data quality and precision in a faster, fully automated workflow
Microfluidics technology empowers you to easily create the approach that’s right for you, so you can find the answers you are looking for and even what you didn’t know was there.
Streamline your lab in days with high-plex panel design (with up to 192 samples or assays) using singleplex simplicity, and reduce sample and reagent input more than 100x.
One run and done: Integrated fluidic circuits (IFCs) form the backbone of the Biomark X9 System, supporting different configurations of samples and assays for simultaneous profiling of multiple types of genomic assay readouts. Each Dynamic Array™ IFC is precision-manufactured to exacting standards of performance and reliability.
Superior data with superior speed.
