Work description
Automated DNA/RNA quantity/quality analyser for downstream NGS workflow.
We need a fully integrated, automated, and easy to use system for the analysis of genomic DNA, Cell-free DNA and other nucleic acids by proprietary small-scale gel electrophoresis as described below. We need high levels of accuracy and reproducibility for the analysis of DNA and RNA samples (for downstream NGS workflow). We require user-self-preventative maintenance rather than engineer facilitated maintenance, to be more cost-effective in running the NGS workflow.
The system should offer automated sample processing (with automated loading, electrophoresis, and imaging of the prepared samples, minimizing user intervention and delivering fast analysis) for quick and reliable sample quality control (with sizing, quantity and integrity information automatically presented) for RNA and DNA sample analysis for next generation sequencing, processing about 96 samples at a time.
We require a fixed cost for consumables per sample (for five years minimum) and rapid analysis (results should be readily available within 2 minutes/sample). The consumables should be ready-to use and should not require any set up or priming or lengthy temperature equilibration periods.
