For scaling up and fully automating PCR setup and thermocycling.
With the Flex PCR Workstation, you can automate your PCR setup and thermocycling at the scale you need to increase efficiency, reduce errors, and save hands-on time. Configure your workstation with our on-deck Thermocycler for end-to-end automation, or with no Thermocycler for automated PCR setup with off-deck thermocycling.
Optional add-ons can be purchased at a 10% discount when ordered with the Flex PCR Workstation*

This kit is designed for the rapid preparation of genomic DNA from various tissue samples, cultured cells, viruses, bodily fluids and swabs using a rapid spin column protocol. Purified DNA is of an excellent yield and quality, and is immediately ready for any downstream application including PCR, qPCR, genotyping, sequencing and more. The protocol can be completed in approximately 80 minutes (including incubation time).

Bacillus cereus is a rod-shaped, gram-positive bacterium. Some strains of B. cereus cause foodpoisoning and other diseases such as keratitis. B. cereus grows at a wide range of temperature, from 4°C to 37°C. In fact, many foodborne illnesses caused by B. cereus are a consequence of improperly cooked or improperly stored food, including dairy products and meats. The majority of food poisoning by B. cereus could be divided into two types of symptoms – the emetic type and the diarrheal type, both of which are caused by the enterotoxin produced by the bacteria.
