Automate End-to-End Nucleic Acid Extraction
Scale Extraction Without Adding Manual Handoffs
Enhance reproducibility, reduce operator dependency, and enable walkaway automation with scalable nucleic acid extraction systems. Designed around a range of sample types, magnetic bead-based methods and existing laboratory infrastructure, LINQ connects extraction with optional reformatting, quality control and downstream sample handling. Extracted material can move directly into normalization and library preparation without manual re-entry.
Automate More of Your Extraction Workflow
Flexible Sample and Chemistry Compatibility
Supports extraction workflows for blood, saliva, FFPE, cell-free DNA (cfDNA), microbial, and environmental samples using compatible magnetic bead-based methods. Final compatibility depends on the validated workflow.
Compact, Modular System Design
Use vertical space to consolidate extraction steps within a compact workcell. Add heating, shaking, magnetic separation, and other compatible modules to meet protocol requirements.
Walkaway Extraction with Integrated QC
Automate lysis, binding, washing, elution, and cleanup, with optional pre- and post-extraction quality control, to reduce manual touchpoints and process variability.
Traceable Workflow and Consumables Management
Track samples through barcode-linked workflows, scheduling, and real-time run monitoring. Configure pipetting logic, deck storage, tip-saving routines, and waste handling around the requirements of the workflow.
Configure Automation Around Your Extraction Workflow
Extraction
Designed for labs moving beyond semi-automated processes, this configuration automates the extraction workflow around your existing liquid handler. It reduces manual touchpoints without requiring a complete change to your laboratory infrastructure.
Extraction + Reformatting
This configuration extends automation to key pre- and post-extraction steps, including upstream tube-to-plate preparation and downstream transfer into barcoded tubes. Sample identification is maintained through the workflow to reduce manual handling and simplify downstream processing, ideal for regulated or scaled-up environments.
Extraction + QC and Sample Management
This configuration extends the workflow from raw sample input to quantified, normalized eluates ready for downstream use or storage. It can include reformatting, quality control, normalization, tube sorting, and transfer to cold storage. This configuration reduces operator involvement while supporting greater throughput and traceability across the extended workflow.
Coordinate Every Step of the Extraction Workflow
LINQ brings instruments and workflow steps together, scheduling tasks and tracking samples and labware throughout each run. Build and adapt extraction workflows while connecting sample identifiers and process data with the systems your lab already uses.
