Good for high throughput handling of samples, very efficient and accurate.

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Isolate and purification of nucleic acids

This machine is very easy to use and operate. The protocol has to be created based on the extraction needs. Then, the machine gives clear instructions of the steps involved, as well as the duration time for the extraction.

Review Date: 10 Apr 2024 | Thermo Fisher Scientific

Very fast operation, results are reliable and reproducible

 

Average Rating 3.7

Application Area:

nucleic acid extractions

This system effectively improved the efficiency of nucleic acid extractions in my lab. The instrument doesn't try to do too many things, and it is very good at it's core function. It has allowed my staff to spend more time on procedures that can't be automated.

Review Date: 5 Jun 2023 | Thermo Fisher Scientific

Less time consuming with hight purity of nucleic acid extraction less contamination.

 

Average Rating 4.7

Application Area:

Nucleicacid extraction instrument with capacity to extract 96 samples within 26 minutes

Comparing to conventional extraction method by using spin column this kingfisher flex 96 well can help us to effectively extraction nucleic acid within 26 mins and the instrument is easy to operate. Preparation of plates also very easy. I recommend this instrument for labs dealing with high number of samples. It is cost effective and less time consuming.

More purified NA isolation can be possible.

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Nucleic Acid isolator

More effective than the conventional manual extraction method. It isolates inhibitor-free products. Less chance of contamination

Useful automation instrument without complicated programing need

 

Average Rating 4.7

Application Area:

PK, proteomics

Very intuitive to operate, robust hardware.

Review Date: 27 May 2022 | Thermo Fisher Scientific

Best purification / extraction machine I ever used and get excellent result.

 

Average Rating 4.0

Application Area:

Purification System provide to process samples for a variety of applications.

RNA extractions have significant applications in the present day. In terms of molecular biology, RNA extraction is the process of purifying RNA from biological samples. There are several methods to separate RNA from the given samples. This extraction process and gene expression analysis have a lot of impact on the downstream applications. Apart from RNA, we also have methods for DNA extractions. The essential difference between these two methods is the pH value. For DNA extraction, the pH level is around 8, and it is around 5 for RNA.

Our go to extractor!

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

DNA and RNA extractions for molecular diagnostics

The Kingfisher Flex is so user friendly that our lab bought a second one! Our 96 well platform allows for testing of 94 samples along with a negative and positive extraction control. The instrument ques the user to load the appropriate plate(s) in proper order of a programmed protocol. The closed system with a clear removable dome prevents dust/dirt from entering the testing site. The instrument can be decontaminated with a bactericidal/virucidal wipe.

Great product, very convenient

 

Average Rating 4.7

Application Area:

Analyze antibody from plasma samples

This is part of a pipeline for preparing captured antibodies from clinical plasma samples. It is very convenient to operate, modify, and program the protocol for each different biological sample. We are very happy with this product.

Review Date: 8 Nov 2021 | Thermo Fisher Scientific

Great result, great performance!

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Automated Nucleic Acid Extraction

Good machine, particularly for batch analysis.

Review Date: 18 Oct 2021 | Thermo Fisher Scientific

Great little piece of automation.

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

DNA/RNA extraction

So far the simplicity and minimal amount of space that it takes up in the lab have been great. Also it seems to very adaptable to other magnetic bead extraction kits which is a big plus. The results so far have been very consistent and it has sped up the overall workflow significantly with operator variability removed from the equation.
