Simplify FFPE Sample Preparation with truXTRAC® FFPE SMART Solutions

Extraction of DNA and RNA from FFPE samples can be challenging, time consuming, and labor-intensive. Traditional methods of extraction require toxic chemicals, often resulting in degraded and fragmented nucleic acids.

Covaris truXTRAC® FFPE SMART Solutions offer a scalable, automation-friendly workflow solution for active deparaffinization, extraction, and purification of high-quality DNA and RNA from FFPE samples. Utilizing the power of focused ultrasonication with Adaptive Focused Acoustics® (AFA®) Technology, this workflow provides both high quality and yield of DNA and RNA from the same FFPE sample while ensuring reliable, reproducible data along with flexibility in throughput and batch size. With no toxic organic solvents or harmful chemicals, this workflow easily integrates with most liquid handling systems.

truXTRAC FFPE SMART Solutions ensure:
-Complete tissue rehydration and emulsification of paraffin from FFPE samples (with lysis buffer)
-Improved de-crosslinking of DNA from proteins
-High yield of RNA from supernatant
-Enhanced resuspension and yield for DNA pellets
-No degradation from toxic organic solvents or harsh chemicals

The truXTRAC FFPE SMART Solutions portfolio includes a collection of consumables, buffers, and reagents for varying batch sizes (16, 24, 32, 48, and 96 samples at a time) as well as accessory kits for fully manual or fully automated workflows.
