How the PIXUL™ Multi-Sample Sonicator Simplifies Sample Preparation for Omics Applications.

This webinar is designed for employees at PRBB who want to know more about PIXUL™ Multi-Sample Sonicator. This equipment can be used for genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and epigenetics applications .

Next-generation sequencing applications, such as ChIP-Seq, RNA-Seq, RIP-Seq, exome sequencing, and whole genome sequencing, require precise sample fragmentation (200-600 bp) for compatibility with short-read sequencing platforms. Shearing by physical sonication, as opposed to enzymatic methods, is preferred for its unbiased nature and ability to produce a relatively narrow fragmentation profile.

However, most currently available sonication systems are incompatible with high-throughput sample processing or require expensive proprietary plates or tubes. PIXUL is a multi-sample focused ultrasonicator that delivers extremely consistent shearing of up to 96 samples processed in parallel and is fast, simple, and inexpensive to operate. PIXUL can be used for genomics, transcriptomics, and epigenetics applications, but also for proteomics and sample preparation (cell lysis).
