The MultiNA II MCE-301 streamlines genetic analysis workflows by fully automating nucleic acid electrophoresis—a process that typically requires over two hours of manual work.
Simply register your samples, load the dedicated reagents and samples into the instrument, and start the analysis. The system also supports adding samples during ongoing runs, offering significantly improved operability compared to the previous model (MCE-202 MultiNA).
In addition, new analysis functions enable a wide range of applications, including quality checks for next-generation sequencing libraries and total RNA, verification of mRNA purity, and mutation detection for genome editing, as well as various genotyping tasks.

What Is Microchip Electrophoresis?

Microchip electrophoresis uses a quartz substrate (microchip) with integrated channels and electrodes to separate DNA and RNA by nucleotide size. Compared to gel electrophoresis, the technique offers several advantages, including simplicity, automation, low cost, and high sensitivity. It is widely applied in a range of fields, primarily the life sciences, but also in pharmaceuticals, food analysis, and environmental analysis.
