3500 Genetic Analyzer for Sequence Typing & Fragment Analysis

This 8-capillary Genetic Analyzer is specifically configured with software for both fragment analysis and sequence typing applications.

We set a new standard in capillary electrophoresis with the 8-capillary 3500 Genetic Analyzer. These instruments are specifically designed to support the demanding performance needs of validated and process controlled environments, while retaining the unsurpassed application versatility that life science researchers expect from us.

• An 8 capillary system that can easily be upgraded to a 24-capillary system when you’re ready.
• New single-line 505 nm, solid-state long-life laser – utilizes a standard power supply; requires no heat-removal ducting.
• Powerful, integrated data collection and primary analysis software provides real-time assessment of data quality.
• Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology tracks key consumables data and records administrative information.
• Advanced multiplexing capabilities for DNA fragment analysis with up to six unique dyes.
• Unrivaled application flexibility – one array and one polymer are used for most applications.
• Simple setup, operation and maintenance – the easiest-to-run, easiest-to-own DNA sequencer to date.

Accurate Reliable Data Quality
The 3500 series systems significantly improves signal uniformity from instrument-to-instrument, run-to-run, and capillary-to-capillary. With a combination of intelligent hardware, powerful new algorithm and reagent combinations, these methods provide major reduction in the range of signal peak heights obtained across multiple 3500 series instruments (see figure 1).

Improved Sizing Precision
New thermal sub-system design gives enhanced performance in demanding fragment applications enabling improved sizing precision versus previous generations of capillary electrophoresis platforms (see figure 2).

Ready to Use Consumables With RFID Tags
The 3500 series introduces ready-to-use consumables with pre-packaged polymer pouches, cathode and anode buffer containers and easy-to-install capillary arrays. Each of these consumables is integrated with RFID tags that enable viewing, tracking and reporting of critical information about reagents and consumables including usage, lot number, part number, expiry date and on-instrument lifetime within the 3500 Series Data Collection Software (see figures 3 and 4).

Easy to Use New Data Collection Software
3500 Series Data Collection software breaks new ground in user-friendly navigation with an intuitive dashboard design, highly visible buttons for common operations, easy-to-read graphical displays to monitor the state of consumables and handy maintenance scheduling calendar functionality. New functionality includes simplified plate set-up, built-in primary analysis with quality control, so you can make decisions about the quality of data as it is produced on the instrument without the need to transfer output files into secondary analysis software packages (see figures 4 & 5).
