ZAG DNA Analyzer System

Description

The ZAG DNA Analyzer System from Agilent Technologies is a capillary electrophoresis instrument for high-throughput DNA fragment analysis. It is designed to process 96 samples in under 20 minutes, facilitating the analysis of thousands of samples per day and providing an alternative to traditional agarose gel electrophoresis. The system operates within a temperature range of 20 to 23 °C and has a power consumption of 150 VA. It offers high separation resolution, capable of distinguishing DNA fragments differing by as little as 3 base pairs, and has a broad sizing range from 35 bp to 20,000 bp when used with appropriate DNA analysis kits. Data acquisition and analysis are managed by intuitive software that can automatically process separation data post-run and generate reports in multiple formats. The system requires minimal sample preparation and supports automated, continuous operation, making it suitable for applications such as basic PCR product analysis, genotyping, and microsatellite detection. Its model or catalog number is M5320AA.
