Plasmid Extraction and Purification - Automation and Analytical Solutions
After expansion, plasmids need to be extracted and purified for quality control checks. There are various methods to achieve this, but most begin with a centrifugation step. Beckman Coulter Life Sciences provides centrifugesfor plasmid purification and analysis, including benchtop, high-performance, preparatory ultracentrifuges and analytical ultracentrifuges.
To automate the plasmid extraction process, the Beckman Coulter Life Sciences Biomek i-Series Automated Workstation can be used with their CosMCPrep DNA Plasmid Purification kit. The IDBS Polar Biopharma Lifecycle Management software can track all process steps and extract instrument metadata for batch report generation.
