Freedom EVO NGS workstation - Automated NGS sample preparation

Posted by

Tecan Group Ltd.

Next generation sequencing (NGS) technology is advancing at an unprecedented speed. In conjunction with the ever increasing throughput of NGS instruments and the option to multiplex more and more samples, sample preparation has become a bottleneck in many laboratories. Automation of NGS sample preparation on the Tecan Freedom EVO NGS workstation increases throughput, reproducibility and guides users through each step of protocol selection and worktable set-up with the TouchTools operator interface. Tecan is developing and optimizing automated NGS sample preparation protocols in collaboration with key research centres, partners including Illumina ® and other NGS sample preparation kit vendors to qualify and test the protocols to ensure that they work in your laboratory.
