Definitely yes. We offer a broad portfolio of refurbished instruments having a variable throughput and satisfying needs of every lab: model 310 (single-capillary, approx. 20 samples/day), 3130 (four-capillary, approx. 50-100 samples/day) and ...

These are instruments that were already at use and their previous owners decided not to use them anymore for various reasons, typically not sufficient throughput or on the other hand infrequent usage. In our hands these machines are refurbished. This means they are disassembled piece by piece,..

The manufacturer’s (Thermo Fisher Scientific, previously Life Technologies, previously Applied Biosystems) policy is to sell new sequencers directly, without resellers. This is why we cannot quote a new sequencer. The problem you will be facing immediately when you start considering a new sequencer is that the new series of sequencers available is somehow limited...

The key decision maker is the throughput. This means how many samples you analyze at the same time. You can select the model 310 (single-capillary = 1 sample „at a time“), 3130 (4 samples at a time) or 3130xl (16 samples at a time). These sequencers are no longer available new, only refurbished...

Yes. Our solution has the same advantage like for 310 model - there is no need to buy new software licenses for data collection and analysis; you can keep on using your current ones for GeneMapper, Sequencing Analysis and other software. The upgrade costs are therefore as low as they can be.

We recommend using a UPS - Uninterruptable Power Supply and we can deliver UPS as a part of instrument delivery. Then you can use your sequencer plugged into a regular wall receptacle with proper grounding (220V/16A). In case of ...

The recommended temperature range for the working site is 15-25°C, the sequencers generally produce a lot of heat. For example, the maximum thermal output of the 3130 ...

Definitely not. However inexpensive they might be, they may cause a lot of troubles too. Especially non-original polymers (non-original means not by Applied Biosystems) are less reliable - have shorter lifetime, spikes are more ...
