EzMate 401
Your Dependable PCR / qPCR Setup Partner
Arise Biotech’s EzMate™ 401 is an automated, high-precision pipetting system specifically designed for low-volume PCR / qPCR sample preparation. Lab technicians understand the many challenges associated with setting up PCR and qPCR reactions. Small volumes of reagents need to be dispensed accurately and consistently for acceptable PCR results, and the manual liquid handling process is tedious and time consuming, with many chances for mistakes.
The EzMate™ 401 was designed as a simple instrument to replace the manual process of PCR / qPCR sample prep. Accuracy, precision and consistency are guaranteed, and reagents will not be wasted on mistakes. Unlike complex, multi-purpose robotic systems, our instrument was designed for the researcher without prior robotics experience. Intuitive set up and programming will have your lab saving time and money almost immediately. Choosing EzMate™ 401 is a choice of “Working Smart”.
