MIRO CANVAS
MIRO CANVAS is a compact digital microfluidics platform for fully automated next generation sequencing (NGS) sample preparation. The revolutionary system drastically simplifies NGS workflows for more walk-away time and higher lab productivity, accelerating genomics discoveries.
MIRO CANVAS is a compact microfluidics platform that enables true walk-away automation of complex NGS library prep and hybridization protocols, with only minutes of hands-on time. The affordable and easy-to-use system utilizes an innovative cartridge to minimize reagent usage and accommodate multiple sample preparation steps, including protocols for long-read sequencing technologies, target enrichment and on-demand processing of samples.
- Simple, walk-away automation for on-demand NGS sample preparation
- Minimize costs with up to 75 % reduction in reagent use and only 15 minutes of hands-on time
- Established NGS sample prep protocols for both short-and long-read sequencing platforms
MIRO CANVAS has been optimized to produce high quality results. These include validated protocols for long-read sequencing – such as PacBio sequencing – as well as short-read sequencing applications, including whole genome sequencing (WGS) and target enrichment.
MIRO Technology:
MIRO CANVAS uses digital microfluidics to move droplets and perform operations using electromechanical forces. All protocol steps, including mixing, thermal cycling and magnetic bead clean-ups are performed in the MIRO cartridge and relevant thermal or magnetic zones on the electrode board of the MIRO CANVAS. The technology fully integrates sample preparation steps to provide walkaway operation.
