iGeneTech launched the IGT-AS12 automated liquid handling workstation in November 2022. It provides a powerful tool for the automation of NGS gene capture laboratories.
Recently, iGeneTech has once again upgraded its one-stop solution for gene capture laboratories and launched premixed reagent (reagent strip) products. When used with the IGT-AS12 automated workstation, this product enables no staff training required; it is ready to take and use immediately.
Product Advantages
1. Zero Reagent Waste
Each sample uses one library preparation reagent strip;
Each hybridization reaction uses one capture reagent strip;
Truly achieving zero waste!
2. Time and Labor Saving
Lab personnel can quickly get started with operations, reducing training time for new lab staff by approximately 5-7 days;
Coupled with reagent strips and built-in automated workflows, it saves lab personnel around 30-60 minutes in reagent preparation and aliquoting;
One person can operate multiple devices. During automated operation, operators can handle tasks like experimental record-keeping and report compilation in parallel, thus improving overall work efficiency.
3. Ready-to-Use
The IGT-AS12 automated workstation comes with built-in standardized experimental procedures for iGeneTech kits. Once delivered to the lab, no reassembly is required—it can be put into use immediately after calibration. When paired with IGT-AS12 automated premixed reagents (reagent strips), it enables true plug-and-play functionality, saving users approximately 2-4 weeks in automated workflow programming and experimental reagent validation, truly achieving "no waiting."
4. Flexible Throughput
The automated experimental workflow supported by the premixed reagents (reagent strips) for the IGT-AS12 automated workstation offers flexible throughput, supporting 1-16 reactions per run (throughput can be doubled via collaboration of multiple workstations). This makes it suitable for small and medium-sized NGS gene capture laboratories, such as third-party testing laboratories, hospital departments, public health and government institution laboratories, and research institutions.

As a key component of iGeneTech one-stop solution for gene capture laboratories, the IGT-AS12 delivers a stable, standardized, and efficient automation upgrade solution for laboratories. It is suitable for low-to-moderate throughput NGS gene capture laboratories and Laboratory Developed Test (LDT) laboratories.
The IGT-AS12 can reduce manual operation time by up to 90%, fully liberating human resources. Its stable and standardized automated operations significantly reduce errors caused by manual handling, thereby improving experimental stability.
